What do birds do during a wildfire? Dr. Jamie Cornelius, a National Geographic Society Explorer, is on a mission to find out. Professor and researcher in the Department of Integrative Biology at Oregon State University, Dr. Cornelius chats with Paul about her research on how birds respond to unpredictable changes in their environment and the Cornelius Lab’s new project exploring how birds respond to wildfire. Dr. Cornelius shares how she became interested in this question, the techniques her team uses to collect data, and the challenges they face doing fieldwork in unpredictable and potentially dangerous areas.

In the introduction, Paul provides an overview of what birds you can expect to see this month on the Oregon Coast. At the end of the episode, ASLC Digital Media Coordinator Nissa Parker jumps in to share news about ASLC events and projects.
