SUMMARY:How do chickadees communicate about the presence and absence of food?
DESCRIPTION:AOS Student Research Grant Seminar\nPresenter: Clay Jones\, Ph.D. student\, University of California Davis; AOS 2023 Josselyn Van Tyne Memorial Research Grant winner \n  \n \nForaging as part of a group can afford social animals benefits such as increased protection from predators and opportunities for social learning\, but not much is known about how animals communicate about variation in food availability or maintain group cohesion while foraging. Carolina Chickadees (Poecile carolinensis) form winter foraging flocks and produce complex\, compositional calls at food sources\, potentially to recruit group members and strengthen social bonds. In a field experiment\, I analyzed differences in Carolina Chickadee vocalizations produced when food was available versus when food access was unexpectedly blocked. This research lends insight into how animals communicate at food sources and share information about changing food conditions\, which could aid their survival in unpredictable environments. \nMore about the Student Research Grant Seminar Series

SUMMARY:AOS 2026 Annual Meeting: Hope Is the Thing with Feathers
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the 144th annual meeting of the American Ornithological Society (AOS). \nFollowing our long legacy of vibrant annual meetings\, the 2026 meeting will once again offer a great opportunity for sharing and discussing scientific research in all areas involving birds. \nWe envision a broad discussion of research that spans the breadth of modern ornithology through plenaries\, symposia\, workshops\, roundtable discussions\, contributed papers\, and posters. In addition to these exciting presentations\, we will have a variety of exhibitors from the commercial\, non-profit\, and government sectors. We will also host a series of daily\, fun networking events and outings for you to make new connections and reconnect with colleagues! \nRemember to mark your calendar for this conference! \nVISIT MEETING WEBSITE
