The Williams Avian Ecology Lab

I am an avian ecologist with broad interest in understanding how birds use habitats within the landscape and how habitat use and environmental conditions affect the full annual ecology of birds.

Juncos are back!

We captured two Slate-colored Juncos during bird banding demonstrations on 21 October and 28 October. Neither of these birds were recaptures, however, we have begun to see color banded individuals from previous years show up at the bird feeders, including RA, a male Junco nanotagged in 2021. Nanotagging Junco season is coming soon!
