A video about the teaching award ceremony is here.

Ornithology Field Trip Photos: In September 2012, my Ornithology class took a day-long field trip to Point Pelee National Park and Holiday Beach Conservation Area. You can see photos of our excellent trip here. You can read a story about our trip in the U Windsor Daily News here.

Best Presentation Award: In August 2012, Mennill Lab Master's student Sarah Baldo won an award for the best student presentation at the North American Ornithological Congress in Vancouver. Congratulations Sarah! We're proud of you for winning this prestigious award at such a major international conference!

New Photos of Mennill Lab Research: I've posted new photos of some of the recent research endavours in the Mennill Lab, including spring field research at locations throughout North and Central America, and photos from recent conferences and meetings. Find them at my Photos page.

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.


Microphone Array Paper: I recently published a paper on a new type of microphone array. Together with a group of colleagues, we showed that this cable-free system can be used to triangulate the position of wild animals based on the sounds they produce. Read the paper here and watch a YouTube video about the paper here.

Encounternet Radiotelemetry Paper: In collaboration with a group of colleagues, I recently published a methodological paper on a new type of digital raiotelemetry called Encounternet. You can read the paper here, watch a YouTube video here, and find the Encounternet homepage here.

University of Windsor Research Awards: I was recently honoured to receive the University of Windsor Award for Excellence in Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activity and to see Matt Battiston receive the Mayhew Undergraduate Research Award at the 2012 Celebration of Research Excellence. See photos from the awards ceremony at my Photos page.

University of Windsor Teaching Award: I was recently honoured to receive the University of Windsor Alumni Award for Distinguished Contributions to University Teaching. The university made a video about the award that you can see here. The video was presented at a ceremony that you can see here.
