Field assistants (=4) needed for a study of ecology of colonial, cooperative breeding and foraging behavior in the Hispaniolan Woodpecker in the Dominican Republic. Field research assistants will participate in data collection during an intensive 6.5-month field season. Assistant duties will include (but are not limited to) nest-searching, assisting with bird capture and processing, nest monitoring, focal behavioral observations (including nest watches and foraging records), assisting with tree-climbing, color-band reading, and data entry. I am currently looking for:
o=2 half-term assistants to arrive between 24 and 26 January (though there is some flexibility with start date) and to remain until 30 April (the end date will be slightly flexible, too). Applications
