The article does not go into any more depth about the behavioural differences the two birds have. I wish it did.

Although this weekend’s storm didn’t appear to take out any satellites, it may shorten some of their life spans.

I just find it interesting that these solar storms effect satellites

The description of the experimental design toward the middle of this video... should be inspiring. Simple, yet complex. BOOM. So cool!

(A pretty fancy piece of equipment is needed here, but I like the concept of this sort of project. Rigorous life science concepts, ability to generate a ton of data, super applicable to real life immediately, etc.)

Do Invertebrates Have Emotions? | The Scientist Magazine® - 1 views
-
He adds that he doubts that the findings are applicable to other insect species, which still might act purely on instinct.
-
Invertebrate nervous systems, physiology, and sensory experiences are dissimilar to ours, and designing experiments to measure their emotions has been challenging.
-
If the responses weren’t purely reflexive, it would open up the possibility that the animals could feel pain.

I wonder what sort of electronics were needed to accomplish this. I also wonder how difficult it would be to attach those to a living insect without sacrificing it.
Bee body mass, pathogens and local climate influence heat tolerance - 1 views
-
"But few studies have examined biotic impacts, such as pathogen infection, on thermal tolerance in natural populations in combination with abiotic factors," she explained.
-
examined bee physical traits—such as sex differences in body mass—to understand how these traits interact with environmental conditions, pathogens and other factors
-
They found that variation in heat tolerance was influenced by size, sex and infection status of the bees. "Small-bodied, ectothermic—or cold-blooded—insects are considered to be highly vulnerable to changing climate because their ability to maintain proper body temperature depends on external conditions,"

There is a strong feasibility element to this sort of work. Being invertebrates, there would be no problem collecting large numbers of bees from the environment for testing. Now... how that is typically done in other research studies... is something to dig into. The challenge here would be the observation/measurement of parasites (like the trypanosomes mentioned here). It might be worth digging into microdissection methods and techniques that others have reported on when working with pollinators and other small insects. It might not be impossible, even in our lab, but it would definitely be a (good) challenge and perhaps something we could find an expert to help us with.
