I saw James Watson speak at #riceuniversity and Baylor Med School when I was an undergrad at Rice in 1986. He came to an upper level class in biology that all of us bio majors were allowed to attend. His lectures were entertaining and wild. 🧪🧵1/5

Here in Houston @riceuniversity our soccer fields attract migrating meadowlarks in late October and early November. One might assume they are the expected Easterns but most have turned out to be Westerns. They r difficult to identify: subtle differences in face, tail and tertial patterns and vocals

Our little bird habitat @riceuniversity is still on fire. And migration is still on. Yesterday, an Ash-throated Flycatcher showed up. First record for my local patch, making this the 276th species documented for an urban hotspot.

Studying at #RiceUniversity means sharing the city with hundreds of thousands of urban bats — perfect for my research on the physiology of #bat migration. In honor of #InternationalBatWeek 🦇, check out the local bat #research occurring throughout #Houston below 👇
