Vlogging in Montreal
I spent a week in Montreal for an academic conference, and while I was there I had a chance to visit two amazing urban green spaces: the botanical garden and the biodome! My friends and I had a lovely day walking around the botanical garden, and I really enjoyed seeing how the old Olympic park buildings had been retro-fitted into educational buildings!

Looking at Bugs in Ecuador
zhlédnutí 599Před 2 lety
The highlight of my adventure in Ecuador was definitely the bugs! We took SO long on every hike because we stopped so often to look at and photograph the amazing arthropods and other invertebrates we saw. We also did light trapping almost every night to see all of the beautiful moths. "Dreams Become Real" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licens...
Birding in Ecuador
zhlédnutí 266Před 2 lety
I love birding, and when I had a chance to look at birds in a whole new ecosystem, I brought out my camera! Enjoy this soothing photo dump of some of the birds I saw on my trip to Ecuador. Sorry for not putting the names of all the hummingbirds up, but there were just too many! See if you can spot my favorite, the white-booted racket-tail, though ;) "Music for Manatees" Kevin MacLeod (incompete...

    The question mark at the end of the title is hilarious. The Amazon rainforest is disappearing. Humans have historically leveled eco systems. We’ve managed to trigger the largest & most dramatic hyper-thermal event in earth’s history. As a collective, human beings are invasive basically anywhere we go. Edit: oh, did we happen to ask how most invasive species wind up on different continents? Like who’s intervention usually causes that to happen?

  • @Zwologosss
    @Zwologosss Před 17 dny

    Invasive by definition or not we are the most detrimental species that has walked earth. Currently 96% of all mammals being us and livestock, the thousands of species of wildlife only making up 4%, which is absolutely dystopian

    The only thing I do with my bug zapper, I just leave it in my bedroom to zap the mosquitoes in the room one hour before sleeping. If it zaps something else, it's usually clothe bugs or flies, and generally insects that I would kill anyway if I saw them in my room

  • @bruceswinford4901

    The distinction here only works because insects have a much more basic society which only revolves around physical reproduction. In human society most are free to reproduce offspring, but only a chosen few can reproduce their ideas and spread influence through generations.

    • @TheRovingNaturalist
      @TheRovingNaturalist Před 9 měsíci

      Great question! In a cold email to a potential advisor, I would include a summary of my background and research interests, as well as the reason(s) why you want to join that person's lab. That should be more specific than just "I like birds" -- think about whether you want to do field work, whether you're interested in certain research methods or analytical frameworks, or if there are specific research directions that are of mutual interest to you and that person. Knowing more specifics of what you're interested in might require doing a bit of background reading in the published literature before you start reaching out to people.
