Check out the master's work of @lenagies.bsky.social on unsupervised clustering of animal vocalizations! Also, yes, she has a master's on #greylaggoose and her last name is Gies (pronounced "geese")... #bioacoustics

My master’s thesis is a paper now ☺️

Happy new year! I wanted to share my new Python package called chatter that streamlines the process of applying AI/ML models to animal communication 🦜🦇🐋🐵👨‍🌾 masonyoungblood.github.io/chatter/

I am very proud of the artwork on the cover of our recent Phil Trans issue on consciousness. It is based on watercolor paintings and ink drawings on paper I did myself, based on published diagrams by recognized experts on comparative brain anatomy (detailed in the caption which it seems no one read)

Still scratching my head about whether female #magnificentriflebirds display back at males or if all those copulations I’ve filmed actually involve immature males

"Unsung Songbirds: Advances in the Study of Corvid Communication" - a new review paper (preprint) https://ecoevorxiv.org/repository/view/10600/ Corvids are amazing, so I'm v pleased to be a small part of this review led by Claudia Wascher and Valerie Dufour. #corvids #bioacoustics

Thank you to everyone at #ibac2025 for this amazing conference. I met so many great people and learned a lot about so many interesting projects. Excited to see you all again some time! And proud that my poster got the student poster price ☺️ stay tuned for the publication!

Excited to share our new preprint! Unlike the North American yellow warblers, females in Galápagos commonly sing and duet with their paired partners. Here, we tested possible functions with a playback experiment: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
