many thanks to my friend Brynn Heckrote who designed all the images & collab'd with me on the lyrics (sung by me) I hope you go forth today with all the #Robinergy in the world 🤩 🦉🧪
lyrics, sung to the tune of "I'm just Ken" in Barbie: I'm just Robin, anywhere else I'd not be so common is it my destiny to live & die a life of anonymity? I'm just Robin, where they see warblers, & I'm just sobbin' what it will take for them to see the bird behind the turd & fight for me? 🦉🧪
The above is a link to my twitter post about it because bluesky still doesn't allow videos. please make sure to turn your sound on while you watch the video! 🦉🧪
I don't want to give away the punchline but while you wait for the incoming papers, here's a small offering that I hope you appreciate in the meantime: twitter.com/wayfaringwil... 🧪🦉
With spring migration right around the corner, the thought of the return of those colorful warblers dazzling you, please remember to appreciate your backyard birds. @RyanGosling #birds #kenergy #robinenergy #PSA Design wizardry by & lyrics collab w/ @brynnnn https://t.co/PAvpd6mOjr
This episode made the rounds again & I had a number of folks reach out asking Qs - @n8swick.bsky.social can verify, but I think this episode was recorded sometime in late 2021 - before I really had any data. 3 years later I have a lot more to share. 🦉🧪 con'd
The American Robin is ubiquitous but there's a lot left to learn. Emily Williams, an avian ecologist at Georgetown University, is studying their migration ecology. What we don’t know about a bird everyone knows. www.aba.org/08-12-more-t...

I couldn’t agree more!
Hey POTUS, the birds I study couldn’t be more American - these GPS-tagged American Robins have chosen to visit President’s Park bc they would very much like to discuss how we can be more #birdfriendly#climatechange#science#birds 🪶🧪
Off to get bbq and Mississippi mud pie, no doubt
