#539 A Bit of Bird Behaviour

Published: Oct. 26, 2019, 4 a.m.

b"This week we're discussing birds, behaviour, and chickadees. How do you look at behavioural traits in birds, how different birds value information gathering, and how those traits affect foraging? Marion Kilgour speaks to Dr. Kim Mathot, the Canada Research Chair in Integrative Ecology, about how and why birds make decisions, and how individuals value and act on information, how they share information within groups, and what value that information has in managing uncertainty.\\nChickadees calls recorded by Jonathon Jongsma, from xeno-canto."
