Crows can deliberately plan how many calls to make, study shows
In a behavioral experiment, crows were able to learn to produce a set number of calls. This involves them planning in advance. From the sound of the first call in a numerical sequence, it is possible to predict how many calls the crows will make. A research team consisting of Dr. Diana A. Liao, Dr. Katharina F. Brecht and assistant professor Lena Veit led by Professor Andreas Nieder from the Institute of Neurobiology at the University of Tübingen has established this. Their study has been publ…

Large birds can boost forest carbon storage — if deforestation doesn’t interfere
Think of a toucan and you’ll probably picture a toco toucan, with its orange bill and white throat. The largest member of the toucan family, the toco toucan (Ramphastos toco) can have a wingspan of more than 1 meter (3 feet) and fly more than 90 meters. On these journeys, it often carries something very […]

There is a #Myopia Epidemic... This is also called #Nearsightedness and mainly due to staring at devices. Kids that once played catch and identified birds now only sit in dark playing angry birds and catching Pokemons. Since the introduction of the iPad the prevalence has doubled. Now expected to affect about half…

Nearsightedness is at epidemic levels – and the problem begins in childhood
While reading, scrolling and focusing on other objects near our faces increase the risk of developing myopia, a little time outdoors in the sun can help mitigate it.

IMO Charlie Jane Anders
should get royalties on Apple Intelligence because the model of transparent AI — running mostly on mobile, quietly steering the user via reminders without ever quite becoming perceptible as a personality — is just a Caddy from All the Birds in the Sky.

German town votes to kill all its pigeons in unusual referendum
Campaigners say the plan to enlist a neck-snapping falconer is unacceptable.

Question for all you #birders
Do you count birds you recognize via song in your list, or do you need a visual confirmation?

@… thank you for following me, your beadwork is splendid. And your avatar is one of my favourite birds - we have 5 species in our woods, hairy, downy, pileated, Northern flicker and sapsuckers. The LikʷalΓa word is λaλaʔanēɫ pronounced gla gla na eth

Next part of tales from #Konin. In Fréderic Chopin Park there's a mini-zoo, and besides animals (and I consider them "above average" for a free entry mini-zoo) you can see some nice animal-themed murals there.
I'm truly surprised that I managed to identify the birds.

Effect of Feathers on Drag in Plunge Diving Birds
This study explores the impact of feathers on the hydrodynamic drag experienced by diving birds, which is critical to their foraging efficiency and survival. Employing a novel experimental approach, we analyzed the kinematics of both feathered and non-feathered projectiles during their transition from air to water using high-speed imaging and an onboard accelerometer. The drag coefficients were determined through two methods: a direct calculation from the acceleration data and a theoretical app…

Are LLMs classical or nonmonotonic reasoners? Lessons from generics
Recent scholarship on reasoning in LLMs has supplied evidence of impressive performance and flexible adaptation to machine generated or human feedback. Nonmonotonic reasoning, crucial to human cognition for navigating the real world, remains a challenging, yet understudied task. In this work, we study nonmonotonic reasoning capabilities of seven state-of-the-art LLMs in one abstract and one commonsense reasoning task featuring generics, such as 'Birds fly', and exceptions, 'Penguins don't fly' …

Metabolic allometric scaling of multicellular organisms as a product of evolutionary development and optimization of food chains
Production of energy is a foundation of life. Metabolic rate of organisms (amount of energy produced per unit time) generally increases slower than organisms' mass. This phenomenon, when considered across different taxa, is called interspecific allometric scaling. Its origin puzzles scientists for ninety two years. Here, we introduce a general biomechanical model, and apply it to modelling dynamic and kinematic properties of motion of mammals, reptiles, fish and birds. We consider these models …
