When my friends over at YourBirdOasis sent me a super squirrel-proof bird feeder to review, I had to think about who I knew who could really put the device to the test. Strategy, economy, and design stem from the understanding of such principals as applied to a specific context. I chose this as my test.

He modeled likely future suitable habitats in a climate change scenario for a number of bird species of conservation concern. For example, palms are generally more resistant to storms and over the long term, they may predominate, deferentially impacting many bird species. Dr. Tom White of the U.S.

The birds were too far away to identify, and I know more than one species does this, but if I had to guess they were starlings.

I’m only supposed to document one specific species, but I also note the other birds because in a 4 hour period, I’m lucky if I see the target species for 15 minutes. It’s a good strategy for Bobolinks to have. Each week a new species tried to test the patch for nesting territory.

The vast majority of the 10,000+ living species of birds are passerines, and the vast majority of those have a similar system of breeding: Mom and dad bird make a nest and share parental responsibilities roughly equally, if not identically. It turns out that the two strategies may be related.

They found that the species is diurnal (well, using cameras, would they even have seen nightly activities?),
