Reynolds, Jim - University of Birmingham

个人简介

Dr Jim Reynolds was born in Northampton and remained in the Midlands where he attended school in Warwick before studying Biology at the University of Southampton. He carried out applied graduate work (MScF) in the Faculty of Forestry at the University of Toronto where he was a rarity studying wildlife of boreal forests rather than the ‘crop’ itself. He returned to the UK and to graduate work (DPhil) at the University of Oxford where his interests in nutritional ecology and physiology grew. He then returned to North America to apply his interests in foraging ecology to the conservation of a Federally Threatened bird species in the southern USA. Although he continues to collaborate on this Florida Scrub-Jay (Aphelocoma coerulescens) project, he is now a lecturer in ornithology and animal conservation at Birmingham.
