ONE FIELD ASSISTANT WANTED FOR RESEARCH ON JAYS IN MEXICO--I am looking for one field assistant with experience working with birds to help with a project on Mexican jays in the Sierra del Carmen of northern Coahuila for the time between 25 Mar - 10 Jun 2004. Specifically, I would like applicants to have experience using mist-nets (such that they can set them up, take them down, and remove birds without my oversight) and taking field observations of behavior. Daily work will include catching birds, assisting with bird processing, taking foraging observations, and finding nests. The project seeks to compare jay populations in different habitats to determine if divergent selection can result in local adaptation along an elevation gradient. Applicants should be accustomed to working outdoors, hiking with equipment, and should have their own camping gear. They should also be highly motivated with an interest in wildlife, ecology, and/or evolution. Living situation will be split between a staffed field station, rustic cabins, and camping. The Sierra del Carmen is a large, high, and remote mountain range about 50 km southeast of Big Bend National Park. It currently has protected status from the Mexican government and is privately owned by the Mexican cement company, CEMEX, which manages it as a biological preserve. I will pay living expenses and a $800 stipend for each assistant. Assistant must arrange his or her own travel to a meeting spot between Phoenix and Austin. If interested, please contact JOHN MCCORMACK (EM: jmccorm@...). Send a short statement of interest where you briefly summarize your experience (full CV not needed). Include two references – they will be contacted. Thank you!
