Next Monday, September 13, at 7:30 pm will be the first monthly meeting of the
Cayuga Bird Club this fall.
Register online for Zoom Meeting
Dan Baldassarre, Assistant Professor and Provost Teaching Fellow at SUNY
Oswego, will give his presentation "Northern Cardinal Urban Ecology".
Humans dominate the global landscape, so we need to understand how our
activity affects wildlife. In this talk, Dan will give a general overview of
how urban living affects the visual and vocal communication of Northern
Cardinals. Does living in the city cause cardinals to change colors? Does
dealing with urban noise cause them to change their singing behavior? Tune in
to the talk to find out!
As Assistant Professor and Provost Teaching Fellow at SUNY Oswego, Dan
Baldasarre teaches and leads undergraduate research on the evolution and
behavior of birds. He and his students study the effects of urbanization on
Northern Cardinals. He received his BS from Syracuse University, where he
studied fish. Thankfully, he saw the light and made the switch to birds. He
received a PhD from Cornell University studying Australian fairywrens, and did
postdoctoral research at University of Miami and Princeton University studying
vampire finches and Phainopeplas. When not doing bird things, he can usually be
found playing with his five-month-old son or watching the Boston Red Sox.
Cayuga Bird Club meetings start at 7:30pm on the second Monday of each month,
September through June, and are open to the public. Each virtual meeting will
begin with the speaker's presentation, followed by club business. Colleen
