Acorns and Jays are made for each other... podcast

Sometimes one gets the nicest surprises from unexpected sources. After receiving a notification that our review paper on scatter-hoarding corvids as seed dispersers was cited, I realized that it was featured in a podcast by the Field Guides, two young New Yorkers that like to discuss botanical and biological topics in a very accessible format. Well, in late October, they recorded a podcast about acorns and the many animals that interact with them. Drawing on our paper, as well as many other sources, the Field Guides provide a compelling story about the many ways in which acorns matter, and even mention that jays could be used to restore oak habitat!
