Found some Snow Geese
Imagine how good you have to be at licking boots to stand out as an even bigger bootlicker than Kristi Noem. This dude is like the Michael Jordan of bootlicking.
That's alarming and everything but WHAT ARE THOSE???
Shoot me now
Yeah a lot of social science is like that too. Can be empirical but often using existing datasets. AI could certainly run amok there.
This is cool research (see what I did there?)

Interesting to see a take from a social scientist. Seems to me easier to generate an entire research workflow using AI when you don't have to actually collect new data in the field. Perhaps ecology will be more AI-proof because we still need people to go out in the field and collect the data?
This is a common reply to concerns about GenAI research as if it were just another computational tool that saves us times from tedious tasks and whose accuracy can be rigorously quantified.
It is not.
GenAI research poses at least 2 serious problems... /n
Sorry that's not true! 10M TRES is most in western hemisphere. Globally, there's a 12M Red-billed Quelea checklist from last year. ebird.org/checklist/S2...
If it’s one of the best spots in the state then it’s one of the best spots in the world! Incredible.
Should be warming up in next week or so!
Van Remsen had 10M Tree Swallows on Louisiana coast, which has the top spot
I don't believe the human mind is equipped to process 2.75 million Snow Geese. I've seen about 250k before and it nearly broke me. ebird.org/checklist/S2...

When does the academic bubble burst? How much time do we have left?
Ornithologist, peering into museum drawer: "Ah shit, what am I gonna name this yellow bird with the long bill?"
Albert’s Lyrebird encounter there changed my life
I merely beckon and the birds come to me. I whisper and they answer.

We need a woman as president so desperately. In fact, we need an entirely matriarchal government for at least a few generations. Men have been running wild for a bit too long.
Well this is fcking crazy. Work from @msbbirds.bsky.social and others found that Black Metaltail hummingbirds can drop their body temperature down to 3 °C (37 °F) during torpor. 🤯 Turns out birds aren't warm-blooded after all! royalsocietypublishing.org/rsbl/article...
