I've recently purchased the domain, http://growingpassion.org, replacing my old blogspot address. This doesn't have any profound impact on any links or feeds you might have to this blog, because it's automatically redirected. But I thought I'd let you know. :)
Although I've been theoretically on mid-semester break, I've actually been pretty busy doing my Advanced Biology internship in genetics, so my plans for lots of blogging have been somewhat thwarted. And tomorrow I have my first day in the Lusk Lab, which is pretty groovy.
But plans are afoot for much more writing. I'll keep you posted!
Hi Margret,
ReplyDeleteI saw your blog on a Lyrebird mimicking human sounds. I'm very interested in this subject and am in fact the cinematographer who filmed the "Life of Bird" sequence.
The "Life of Bird: sequence was filmed in captivity and currently there is to my knowledge no public recordings or provable evidence of Lyrebirds mimicking human created sounds or frog sounds. As such I would be very interested in attempting to film and record your bird.
I can be contacted at nickhayward@dodo.com.au
Cheers,
Nick
Hi Nick,
ReplyDeleteFantastic!
Of course the problem is knowing when the lyrebird is going to be active. Now that spring is approaching, the lyrebirds here will be up to their business again, so it's a good time to be trying to get a recording.
I'll send you an email.
Cheers,
Margaret
