Research summary
AI-generated

Patrice Baumhardt studies bird vision and behavior, including how birds see and respond to their environment. Their work spans topics like visual acuity in relation to egg recognition, retinal structure in insect-eating birds, and how birds such as turkey vultures react to drones (unmanned aircraft systems). This research combines sensory biology with practical questions about wildlife-technology interactions.
