In other news, The Paper That Just Won't Die is no longer my problem! No, I didn't finish it. But Co-Author #1 (we were actually doing the asterisks and equal contribution thing; my name was first because I was writing it) suggested combining it with another paper of his. I said HELL YES, TAKE IT AWAY FROM ME. This will switch author order but we will keep the asterisks. I don't care anymore, I just don't want to deal with it. It makes a lot of sense, actually, because the two papers rely on each other so why not put them together and make a stronger paper. And I can finally move on with my life. Woo hoo!
Even the disgruntled grackle thinks it's a good idea.

I hear ya about putting things together in a draft. I have problems with making major changes to things, and having to change the order and such. You're doing awesome though, and it sounds like you have a plan of attack.
And Congrats for being done with the paper that just won't die!!
These bird pictures make me giggle :)
Wow, you have one crazy schedule!
That bird looks like it would peck. Does it ever bite/stab you with its beak?
Thanks!
To my surprise, the grackle bite didn't hurt that much. Of course, after a day spent sampling 30 cardinals in cages - and spending that evening nursing a bitten, swollen hand - no bird bite seems that bad.
So the grackle has a bark worse than his bite?
Congrats on getting the paper off your desk. Sounds like a great plan!
Congrats on unloading the paper.
I am LOVING your angry bird series!
