RESEARCH INTERESTS
Interests: Behavioral and Evolutionary Ecology, Ornithology, Conservation Biology, Life History
Theory, Urbanization and Climate-induced Environmental Change
My research focuses on associations among parameters of fitness and variation of animal life histories,
using birds as model species. More specifically, I'm interested in the causes and consequences of post-
fledging survival of fledgling birds. Overall, however, my interests in avian ecology are relatively broad. I
have more general interests in avian breeding ecology and conservation, and in avian responses to
urbanization and climate-induced environmental change. My past and current research has examined
variation in coloration and condition across and urban-to-rural gradient, how avian morphologies vary
with urban-associated sensory pollution, prevalence and costs of blood parasites in small songbirds, host-
brood parasite interactions, fledging behavior, functional ecology of juvenile wings, and pre- to post-
fledging carryover effects (with a focus on life history evolution).
