Welcome!
This website provides information on the research my colleagues and I are currently conducting on pied and Arabian babblers and Western Australian magpies (as well as other species these two 'focus' species interact with). In these pages you will find details about our research, our study species, and any research opportunities currently available.
The Pied Babbler Research Project was established by me in 2003 and is based in the southern Kalahari desert, South Africa. The Arabian Babbler Project was established by Prof Amotz Zahavi in 1974 and is based in the Negev desert, Israel. The Western Magpie Research Project was established by me in 2013 and is based in urban Perth. All projects have been running continuously since establishment and use detailed observations of habituated populations to gain an insight into the evolution and dynamics of group-living behaviour.
