The Concrete Ornithologist 

My career in ornithology started in the Amazon but funding availability led me to look at avian communities along an urban-rural gradient through the Auburn's Center of Forest Sustainability

For the last couple of years I've been looking at a number phenomena along urban gradients including avian diseases, insectivory, and frugivory.

Most recently, my research team and I are examining if there is evidence of surface water contaminants from gas drilling making their way to terrestrial birds.  

Gas well outside Dimock, PA 
This is where I'll post my activities and other (random) thoughts. Enjoy the ride.
