Hi Murphd. I have recently started an article, Shoaling and schooling, about fish shoals and schools. While scanning around Wikipedia to see if I had missed something that might be useful, I came across your most excellent article, Collective animal behavior, started only four weeks ago! Most of the examples you use are excellent examples about shoaling and schooling fish. So naturally, I want to include them in the fish article. I will put the article up for a wp:dyk, with you as the joint author. I hope this doesn't put your nose out of joint : / When I have finished with the fish article, I will come back to Collective animal behavior and see if a wider range of examples can be drawn from other areas, but guess you are positioned to do that better than I am. Anyway, it would be great to collaborate with you, if you are willing. I have created a navigation template, {{collective animal behavior}}, with your article as the lead article. --Geronimo20 (talk) 08:31, 17 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
