Well, with our recent papers 🤩⬇️
🦅 Does size matter when recognizing predators?
🧐 Do magpies recognize a juvenile goshawk?
👀 No weapons, no danger?
🐞 How do #birds respond to aposematic 🐞 in their diet?

After years of research, fieldwork, writing, and countless discussions, I successfully defended my dissertation on predator recognition in birds.
I couldn’t have done this without the support of my colleagues, mentors, friends, family and birds. Thank you! 🦅🙏

Behavior, neurobiology & field studies across avian species
Very fond of the neurobiology part :)

To study predator recognition, researchers prepare the most hilarious mixed-species #bird dummies. 🪶🧪
Want to see some photos & learn about the #science behind these experiments?

By modifying the eyes of the sparrowhawks, great tits find them: either harmless like a pigeon (with no eyes), or absolutely terrifying (with frontal eyes in line or under the beak).

Look at the image, it shows the proportion of neurons in the pallium (in blue) and in the cerebellum (red). Primates (including humans) have a rodent-like proportion

We tested if wild #GreatTits recognise predators not just by what facial elements are present (eyes, beak), but also how they’re arranged.
👁️🔄 Rotate the eyes 90° = more fear
👁️↩️ Rotate them 180° = same fear
👁️🚫 No eyes/beak = no fear

This was several years of work, building on our study of woodcock communication.
Working with @sheardcat.bsky.social and John was a particular privilege.

It is the first book by cognitive biologist Alice Auersperg (@auersperga.bsky.social), about the inventive capacity of other species. From bees to, of course, Goffin's cockatoos!
