While still in my 30′s I did not feel any differences to being in my 20′s, but the early 40′s make it clear once and for all that I have definitely left my youth behind.

I think that people who are pro-animal research would come away with something to ponder, definitely the sense that this is not a pretty or sanitized practice. Actually, I didn't quit neuroscience as a result of the experiences described, but I did quit working with animals. Bring on the PETA hotties!

Erika is a first year graduate student studying Ecosystem Science and Conservation at Duke. Of the ten students, two had gone on the trip the year before and one had experience with the Sooty Terns, meaning 30% of us knew what we were doing, and 70% had zero idea. Oh, the lessons of bird banding. Each took merely a minute or two.

You’d think, then, that applying science to philosophy by studying the evolutionary underpinnings of thought and behavior across species would be right up my alley.

To an intermediate-level birder like me, the material in Better Birding –highly focused, detailed, based on the latest research and years of field experience– is daunting, but also fascinating.
