A little 2023 boost for our PhD studentship! (Note - the deadline is 27th Feb, don't worry about the earlier Essex date currently indicated on the advert, that's an error we're getting fixed).

Great experience to share our (@ivb_cas and @AviEcoMig) videos on cuckoo research with @zefrank and his True Facts! Over 2 millions views for the episode about brood parasites!👏 youtu.be/9TZQDA2yabg

Had a lovely few days teaching R at @Aston_IHN with @AlasdairClarke - a fantastic group of students and amazing organisation from @RachelLaraGreen and Tom James. We hope everyone enjoyed it as much as we did!

Very pleased that our paper on recognition abilities of barn swallows got published in @SpringerANCO! We found that swallows are really good at sanitising their nest but probably not at defending themselves against conspecific brood parasitism. @animalcog link.springer.com/article/10…

In this new article, these researchers present a way to model foraging behaviour as a generative sampling without replacement procedure, implemented in a Bayesian multilevel model. Read it here: plos.io/3o3GvZ5

I have just about managed to get my summer paper on [Modelling how people forage] (with @ScienceAnna and Amelia) finished and submitted before term starts... psyarxiv.com/zacr9 Hoping to submit soon, but if you like, get all your nasty R2 comments in early!

Shameless #ECVP2021 promotion - @AlasdairClarke is presenting some work we've been doing on foraging models in the visual search session (17:15 CEST) - join for simulated chickens and all sorts of other excitement :)
