As regular CFZ-watchers will know, for some time Corinna has been doing a column for Animals & Men and a regular segment on On The Track... particularly about out-of-place birds and rare vagrants. There seem to be more and more bird stories from all over the world hitting the news these days so, to make room for them all - and to give them all equal and worthy coverage - she has set up this new blog to cover all things feathery and Fortean.

Colonization of Brazil by the cattle egret

Summary:
A new study of the colonization patterns of the cattle egret in Brazil offers a new take on the study of alien species. It aims to present how the invasive species colonized this great new area, to compare the Brazilian population genetic composition to the native species in Africa and to detect genetic signs of demographic expansion in these two areas.
