LEAD BIRD BANDER at Bandelier National Monument. Website: http://www.nps.gov/band Location: Los Alamos, NM. Duration: 6 months. Job Type: Intern. Application Deadline: 6 Dec 2016. Job Description: Bandelier National Monument is seeking applicants for a six-month biological science internship. The selected candidate’s primary responsibility will be to serve as the lead bird bander for the park’s 2017 bird banding program, which is one of a number of long-term research and monitoring programs at the monument. The lead bird bander will be part of a three-person bird banding crew consisting of an international intern and a National Park Service employee. Our bird banding program includes both Monitoring Avian Productivity and Survivorship (MAPS) and migratory banding stations which have been monitored for 13 years. During the summer season (May-July), the bird banding crew will monitor and track nesting passerines at four MAPS sites at different locations in the park. During Fall migration (August-mid-October), the crew will work with volunteers and school groups to track migrating passerines. A key part of our bird banding program is educating under-served school children about the bird banding process, with an emphasis on the biology of birds and potential influences from warming climates. The selected applicant will all be involved in creating a 45-minute bird banding presentation to deliver to approximately 20 different 4th-6th grade classes. These programs will take place in September during which the schools will also visit the banding site to see the scientists and interns in action. The secondary responsibilities of this position will be to provide general support to Bandelier’s Natural Resources Program which may include: conducting avian point counts; monitoring Peregrine Falcon nests; repairing/removing ungulate exclosures; assisting with bat surveys; leading birding walk for visitors; assisting with vegetation plots; assisting with invertebrate pit fall trapping; assisting in the planting, salvaging, and caring of native plants; assisting in the mapping and control of exotic plants; and entering data into databases. Much of the above-mentioned work will be performed outdoors and may require walking or hiking over rugged terrain and working outdoors in both hot and cold weather. Position will be in mid-May 2017 and end in mid-October 2017. Qualifications: Recruiting a highly-qualified intern to support the Bandelier’s bird banding program and Natural Resources Program is essential to our success. Applicants must be able to obtain, at a minimum, a sub-permit from the Bird Banding Laboratory (BBL). Applicants must be skilled in all aspects of bird banding including: setting up mist nets; removing birds from the nets; banding birds; identifying, sexing, and aging birds, collecting information on bird’s body condition and reproductive status; and properly releasing the bird without harm. Applicant must be able to perform these bird banding duties while ensuring the safety of staff and birds is met at all times. Applicants must be willing to train less-experienced interns and able to work well with others. It is preferred that applicants have experience with the MAPSProg data management software, but it is not mandatory. It will be expected that the selected candidate be an active team member to both the bird banding crew and Bandelier’s Natural Resources Program and be willing to perform a wide-array of duties. Applicants must be able and willing to work irregular schedules including early mornings, nights, and weekends. It is desirable that applicants be able to carry 30+ lbs and have experience hiking and navigating in remote backcountry settings using map, compass, and GPS. Compensation: $3,000/month + housing.

VOLUNTEER FIELD TECHNICIAN IN FAIRYWREN BEHAVIORAL ECOLOGY at Tulane University. Website: http://karubian.tulane.edu Location: Western Province, Papua New Guinea. Duration: ~3 months, starts at around the end of Jan-mid Feb. Job Type: Volunteer. Number of Openings: 2. Application Deadline: 20 Nov 2016. Job Description: I am looking for two volunteer field assistants for research on the behavioral ecology of white-shouldered fairywrens in Papua New Guinea. Field techs will assist in monitoring a color-banded population in Western Province, Papua New Guinea (PNG). Potential tasks will include mist-netting, banding, color-band resighting (and tracking), blood sample collection, nest searching, behavioral experiments, and audio recordings. All costs for in-country transportation, lodging, and food are provided by the project, with the exception of recreational trips on days off. The field site is located in a small, remote village in the lowlands of Western Province. Living conditions are very basic, with no electricity, and little outside contact. Mosquitoes, rain, high temperatures, crocodiles, and venomous snakes are all present on the site. Qualifications: The ideal field assistant will have bird banding, nest searching, and/or tracking experience. The ability to resight color combos is a significant plus. Additionally, international research experience (not a requirement per se), confidence to work independently and alongside locals, and a good sense of humor and attitude go a long way. Applicants should be in good physical condition (as we often will hike a few miles per day) and be able to tolerate difficult living and working conditions. Finally, things go astray from the plan quite frequently in PNG; being patient and understanding with these challenges is good to keep in mind. Compensation: This is a volunteer position, and as such, there is no associated salary. Our basic model is for applicants to cover their own travel to PNG, and we will provide all local transport, lodging and food. To apply, please send a one page cover letter (detailing your research experience as well as what you would want to gain from this position), your CV, and contact information for three references (who know your work ethic, preferably in the field) to JOHN ANTHONY JONES (johnajones91 AT gmail.com). Please feel free to enquire about any questions pertinent to this application or regarding the field work in PNG. Because the visa process takes awhile in PNG, the position will be filled as quickly as applicants come in. November 20th is a soft deadline, but do that the note position may be filled by then to expedite the visa process.
