Gentoo Penguins in the Falklands, with John Bates, Sushma Reddy, and Rachael Herman

For this episode of BioScience Talks, we're joined by John Bates, Curator of Birds at the Field Museum, Sushma Reddy, Breckenridge Chair of Ornithology at the University of Minnesota and the Bell Museum, and Rachael Herman, Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Stonybrook University.

Our guests were here to chat about a recent research trip to the Falkland Islands, and more specifically, about the gentoo penguins they were studying on those islands.

Pictures from the trip can be viewed on YouTube.

Be sure to check out the fantastic Birds of a Feather Talk Together podcast, cohosted by guest John Bates.

Learn more about island vegetation restoration at Roots in the Ground, which describes the work of Giselle Hazell, discussed in the episode.
