Captivating Courtship: Leaping for Love by Regina H. Macedo Paul C. Mundinger Distinguished Lectureship October 25, at 5:30 p.m. B25, Warren Hall, on the Cornell University campus The lecture is free and open to the public. This is an in-person and virtual event. It's tough to catch the eye of a potential mate when you’re dressed all in black with no fancy feathers to jiggle around. But a tiny bird called the Blue-black Grassquit has found a way. Learn about this fascinating species during the 2023 Paul C. Mundinger Distinguished Lectureship presented by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. The lecture will be delivered by Regina H. Macedo from the Universidade de Brasilia (University of Brasilia). She has been studying the Blue-black Grassquit for decades, peeling apart the influences that resulted in the bird's energetic courtship leaps. This lectureship was established in honor of the late Paul Mundinger, who received his Ph.D. in Evolutionary Biology from Cornell University.
