It's monthly meeting time! This month our general meeting is "All About Birds!" and features Katie Sieving of the University of Florida.
Katie is an avian enthusiast and guardian of all things feathered at UF's Wildlife Ecology & Conservation Department. Armed with a B.Sc. in Wildlife, Fish, & Conservation Biology from UC Davis and a Ph.D. in Ecology, Ethology, & Evolution from the University of Illinois, Katie leads research that delves into avian ecology and behavior, with a special knack for deciphering the intricate language of our feathered friends, especially the Eastern Tufted Titmouse.
When not decoding titmouse dialects, Katie and her team explore the world of animal information landscapes, or, the behavioral responses of forest dwellers to information shared among animals living in the same community. With a passion for effective conservation science and a philosophy of empowering her students to take the reins, Katie Sieving is not just about studying birds. She's about fledging young scientists with a passion for making a difference in the world, one chirp at a time. And she enjoys kayaking and paddleboarding too!
