Hello tweets,

I wrote a story that you might enjoy about cooperative
breeding behavior in African starlings and how it is
apparently driven by the predictability of the
environment that they live in. Basically, less
predictable environments favor the evolution of
cooperative breeding behavior.

It makes you wonder what will happen to other birds
and animals and even humans as the effects of global
warming become more pronounced?

Includes pictures of the birds and the data.
