Awesome Things We Learned About Birds in 2022
Manage episode 351188474 series 2801482
This is Episode Number 67. It’s the last episode of 2022, so that means it’s the Annual Review!
We’re going to look back at 2022, at some of the most interesting scientific studies of birds that were published this year.
Will this be a painstakingly thorough review of everything that scientists learned about birds in 2022?
No. Not so much. The studies I’m telling you about today—while they did make it into the newsfeed—are just the ones that I found most exciting. Or at least interesting. I decided they’re worth yapping about.
