@johnjohnston That is sheer cleverness, John. I enjoyed the loading animation too.

@johnjohnston Do you know about NB Davies’ study of the speckled wood’s territorial behaviour? A classic.

@jeremycherfas I did not. I’ve read the abstract now. I have found that if one is scared off, it often returns to the same sunlit leaf or log quite quickly. I don’t think I’d noticed them often until recently. Their flight through sun dappled woods is delightful.

@cogdog thanks, I saw that squirrel a few years ago. I thought it suited desperately searching.

@johnjohnston So interesting. A classmate of mine. Went on to write the book on behavioral ecology, literally.

@johnjohnston what I love about Nick’s work is that patient observation and simple experiments not far from home led him to such interesting ideas.
