  1. A bird's-eye view of research

    — It was a sunny Saturday morning and master bird bander Lee Johnson was holding spring in his hand. An American robin, a harbinger of the season, had just been banded, and Johnson was showing a Boy Scout troop how to safely and securely hold a bird.

  5. Oaxaca temple complex hints at archaic Mexican state

    Much of what we know about past civilizations in Mexico comes from the writings of colonial Europeans -- Spanish conquerors and priests -- who arrived in the Americas in the 1500s. But archaeological evidence from recent excavations at a site called El Palenque in the Valley of Oaxaca, Mexico, shows that temple precincts similar to the ones the Europeans encountered had existed in the region some 1,500 years earlier.

  7. Evidence points toward solving evolutionary 'missing link'

    With long arms, high shoulder blades and powerful fingers, the ancient creatures were built for climbing trees. But they also had long lower limbs, flat feet and a flexible lumbar spine that gave them a distinct evolutionary edge: They could cover long distances by walking upright on two legs.

  8. Ocean wonders abound in Field Museum's 'Creatures of Light'

    It's dark in the rooms that hold the new exhibition at the Field Museum, dark almost like in the deep ocean where many of the featured "Creatures of Light" live.

  11. Exoplanet atmosphere offers clues about far-off planet's formation

    Astronomers have had great success using tools like <a href=&quot;http://kepler.nasa.gov/" target="_blank">NASA&rsquo;s Kepler space telescope</a> to peer into the heavens and find planets outside our solar system, but they haven&rsquo;t yet been able to describe those worlds in great depth. In large part, that is because they usually detect so-called exoplanets through indirect means &mdash; by observing how they obscure a tiny bit of light as they pass between their star and our vantage point, or how their gravity makes their host star wobble.&nbsp;
