Fast and extremely precise singer

Paper entitled "Rhythmic coordination in rapid duets of little crakes: cooperative signalling without shared experience" and published by Jan Jedlikowski and Paweł Ręk (from our lab) in Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences attracts media attention (see here). We have some of the fastest duet singers in the country.

Research, teaching and finally...vacation!!!

The exceptionally long season of fieldwork is nearly over. Department staff and students conducted research in Poland, Uganda, and Australia. Finally, at the very end, we still participated in exceptional teaching activities. Pawel Szymanski organised a Tropical Biology Course for our students in Ghana (Mole and Kakum National Parks), Tomasz Osiejuk taught bioacoustics to Ghanaian students (also in Mole NP, as part of Erasmus+), and Michal Budka conducted similar Erasmus+ classes for students from Madagascar at Université d'Antananarivo.
