(2017) Wild birds respond to flockmate loss by increasing their social network associations to others. Please do not hesitate to contact me to discuss outreach opportunities.įirth, J.A., Voelkl, B., Crates, R.A., Aplin, L.M., Biro, D., Croft, D., and Sheldon, B. I am also very keen on science communication and outreach, working closely with schools and interest groups. My research will focus on describing movement patterns, fine-scale habitat selection, assessing interactions with other species and evaluating the genetic consequences of the drastic population decline. I aim to identify factors that explain this disproportionate decline, in order to assist the conservation of the regent honeyeater and other woodland birds. The regent honeyeater population has declined as a result of extensive habitat loss throughout its range, but much more drastically than other species. For my doctoral research, I will be studying the ecology and conservation of the critically endangered regent honeyeater. I am interested in how mobile species exploit food resources that vary in space and time, and how they are affected by extensive and ongoing environmental change. I have broad interests in ecology, evolution and conservation, with a focus on birds.
