Indeed, most of what we knew about Emperor Penguins before Kooyman’s research expeditions was about their breeding behavior and physiology. Kooyman was there to work at McMurdo Station (a large American research station that we hear about throughout the book) as technical assistant on a science mission involving fish.

Birding is discussed as a process that involves finding birds, viewing and hearing birds, taking notes and sketching birds, thinking about habitat and migration, and then, identifying birds. It is process that can be as simple or as complex as you wish, and I think this is where Birding for the Curious is unique.

He writes about how experienced birders think, and how they draw on the sciences of weather, geography, and ecology to analyze where the birds will be.

One part of this question can be answered with some very interesting recent research. One is that the circumstances for a trait to emerge do not automatically cause it to happen, and by chance Penguins never underwent this particular Darwinian process until much later in their history.

Howell and Sullivan have taken apart the identification process and turned it around, placing macro aspects first in importance (location, habitat, season), followed by situational factors (lighting, distance), behavior of the bird (what it is doing and how it sounds), and, finally, what the bird looks like (structure, plumage, variation).

The latest scientific research places memory at the heart of decision-making. Studies show that in the process of making a decision, your brain predicts the rewards of a choice based on past memories, and then uses that information to make the most favorable decision. This is a subconscious and automatic process called “priming.”.
