 Cover Articles: Much of the
research in my
lab stems from long-term studies of two species: Black-capped
Chickadees
and Rufous-and-white Wrens. Excitingly, both species appeared on the
covers of behavioural and ornithological journals in the summer of
2012!
You can read these cover articles through my publications page here.
