We’re always interested in what he’s up to and pleased that his research and our collective interest in cool birds can come together in such an opportune manner. Please read and then vote for either Nick or Maria’s research! Would you support research on birds with just a click on Facebook? Maria’s Project.
A logical and outstanding successor to The Genius of Birds (2016), Ackerman’s award-winning book about bird cognition, The Bird Way explores the diversity of bird behavior, the norm and the extremes, with an emphasis on cutting-edge research and findings that explode assumptions. Yet, the research projects are never the whole story.
Smith is the Staff Scientist Emeritus with the Smithsonian’s Tropical Research Centre in Panama. The work was widely cited, followed up with an article in Scientific American and the research appeared (and I may be wrong still appears) in textbooks.
Doug Futuyma believes in science and in the scientific basis of evolution. How Birds Evolve: What Science Reveals about Their Origin, Lives, and Diversity by Douglas J. Futuyma is a synthesis of theory and research about evolution and birds. I needed to read some sections more than once to get the gist.

The team explored Nevada and Utah, with Ridgway collecting thousands of bird specimen, plus nests and eggs for the Smithsonian.
