I am interested in the shaping of avian phenotypes by natural and sexual selection.

RESEARCH INTERESTS / PROJECTS
Research interests are mainly pursued through a long-term study (1984-present) of pied flycatchers breeding in nestbox populations in Central Spain.
Additional topics include avian invasions, red-necked nightjar biology and signalling (secondary sex traits, begging)
My current projects are:
The evolutionary ecology of phenotypic plasticity of morphological, life history and behavioural traits in wild birds
Biotic and abiotic determinants of the spatio-temporal variation in host-parasite interactions
