Black Crowned Crane appreciates your understanding.
Hi loyal readers,
I just wanted to say thanks for hanging in there – I’ve been short on posts these last few months. It’s not that I’m out of cool biology to cover! Rather, it’s that I’m trying to write my dissertation and apply for some postdocs with coinciding due dates, so all of my writing-about-science-ideas energy has been going towards those goals. Once the postdoc applications are submitted, I’ll be able to write more here again. (And these postdocs, if I got any of them, would make for some great research blog posts—cross your fingers!)
In the meantime, here are some more birds that appreciate your patience with me.

Love your blog. Happy to wait to see what unexpected thing appears in my inbox. (Pigeon vision. Grandmothers. Love it.)
Good luck with all of those activities.

Thanks Maria! I’m so glad you like it!
Good luck!
All the best with your deadlines.
Hi, I recently discovered your blog, and now I’m going back and trying to read all your past articles! Thanks for your interesting posts! I really enjoyed those. You got a new fan! I’m a bio major so I love the educating part too.
