After securing our passage, I patiently waited for this once-in-a-lifetime experience to a place we have never been and lacked any knowledge of, we were in for a complete surprise. These have been used by meteorologists, technicians, and researchers who spend about 13 months on the island at a time researching a variety of sciences.

It is home to four diverse forest ecosystems (deciduous, mixed, boreal, and lowlands), experiences seasonal weather systems ranging from cold dry Arctic winters to humid, thunder-storm filled summers, and, according to the latest official checklist, hosts four professional sports teams with bird names.* comparison tables!)

Similar comparisons can be made with other bird features such as how their hips work. So this new research is very interesting, and we applaud the scientists for their work. These researchers carried out two different major efforts that in combination advance our understanding of the evolution of the bird beak.

Plasticity in humans is probably modulated primarily through experience and enculturation. As I’ve noted elsewhere, it was really Darwin’s experiences on the Falklands that first congealed many of his evolutionary insights. My research in the Congo supports this idea. The paper is in Natrure Scientific Reports.
