The American Robin (Turdus migratorius) may be the early bird that catches the worm, the first sign of spring, and the "backyard bird," but it turns out there's still a lot to learn from this common species. Despite being one of the most widely distributed songbirds on the North American continent, robins have remained an enigma when it comes to their migratory behavior. It turns out this “resident” or “short-distance migrant” is misunderstood and underestimated. To learn more about their migration Emily Williams has embarked upon a multi-year, multi-region project to set the record straight about this overlooked bird. By using small, high-resolution satellite transmitters over six years, Emily and her colleagues have tracked multiple populations of American Robins throughout their breeding range to reveal a remarkable amount of variation in within- and between-year movements by robins, which she will discuss with us during her presentation. 

 Emily is an avian ecologist who has been studying birds for over 15 years. She is a Florida native and grew up along the Space Coast, enjoying the swamps and wildlife of Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge as her backyard. Emily is currently working on a doctoral degree in biology at Georgetown University, where her research focuses on understanding the patterns and drivers of migration in American Robins.  Before coming to DC, Emily worked across the US and internationally on multiple bird research projects, including working for the National Park Service in Alaska, where she studied the behavior and migrations of birds in Denali National Park and Preserve.
