Every time I open the Metatext app on my iPhone it takes two to three minutes to load new toots. It happens on good wifi as well as good cell connections. Is that other people’s experience? Or is it the app or my instance? I’m learning patience. 😁 #help #NewHere #Metatext

Intro post: I'm a professor of #Biology at the #UniversityOfWashington. My training is in #EvolutionaryBiology, #BehavioralEcology, #PopulationGenetics, and #Epidemiology. I did lots of work in #Bibliometrics and #NetworkTheory. I teach #DataLiteracy. These days I spend a lot of time thinking about the spread of #Misinformation, the #ScienceOfScience, and #PhilosophyOfScience. I do a lot of #BirdPhotography and love #ravens, #crows, and all #corvids.

For your trouble, here's a perfect crow.

If you squint, you can see Australia and New Zealand.

« Am I glowing enough for you ? » We got the sun back today, which was nice, after a few days of rains and clouds. It was great to see this Northern Cardinal glowing under a bright sunlight earlier today. #birdwatching #birds #birdphotography #NaturePhotography #ottawa #BirdOfMastodon #nature #ottawa #wildlife #cardinal
