@LeaGrie @CognitiveEcol @Sonnenbird @branchinalong @LM_Benedict @lewbells23 @virginiakheinen We're pretty lucky to work in a very high density population, but it's a wild population so it did take awhile for @CognitiveEcol to get them to come to bird feeders at the beginning of the study.

@ShannonSkalos @ScienceMagazine @CognitiveEcol Thanks! What a great name! I've heard cheeseburger birds but never Mountain Cheeseburgers. Your four-year old is going places.

This paper is a product of years of work by researchers led by @CognitiveEcol. @Sonnenbird, @branchinalong, @virginiakheinen, @PiteraAngela, @LM_benedict, @lewbells23, Eli Bridge, and others put in many hours of winter fieldwork and feeder design to collect these data. n/n
