"GrrlScientist" is the blog pseudonym for an evolutionary biologist/ornithologist and freelance science writer who mostly writes about E3: evolution, ecology and ethology, and the subtle relationships between these phenomena, especially in birds. I write a science blog that is hosted by the Guardian and another one for Nature Network, and I write guest pieces for BirdingBlogs. Social progressive, politically liberal, lacking the credulity necessary to believe in invisible or supernatural life forms, in the benevolence of large corporations or in the humanity of humans. I am a Ravenclaw.
