The whimsical sounds of the Birds, Ornithology and why birds sing, territory and more with Miranda Zammarelli

  • Summary

  • Today the pod shows its fitness with im-peck-able wordplay. That's right, today's episode is for the birds. At least those which have a raven-ous appetite for knowledge.

    Our guest, PhD candidate Miranda Zammarelli (Dartmouth College) has research that takes place in what I guess can be best described as the closest we can get for lab conditions in the natural world. The site for her work is the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest - located in New Hampshire.

    The forest is her laboratory and this discussion does its best to get at how and why it happens!
