Jay publishes in Ecology on potential caterpillar mimicry by hummingbird chicks!
Congrats to Jay (and Scott, Michael Castaño-Diaz, Sebastian Gallan-Giraldo, Joseph See!) for publishing a recent paper in Ecology - The Scientific Naturalist that describes possible caterpillar mimicry by white-necked jacobin chicks! Jay and Scott made these observations when Scott was visiting Panama during his sabbatical last year. Be sure to check out the supplemental videos to see the twitching behavior described in the paper!
