Dr. Breton has also collaborated with me to analyse seabird data for publication in major international journals; he has also advised my graduate students from time to time.

"Like
many wildlife biologists, I worked with individually marked birds over a period
of 20 years. Mountains of data were
collected by a variety of students and technicians. Little thought had been given to relational
database design and my knowledge of the area and computer skills were less than
primitive. Luckily I found Andre`
through Michael Dicola. They used their experience gained developing the
Seabird Finder database to build Gull Finder, a capture-mark-recapture database
for my Great Lakes Herring Gulls. Andre’s infinite patience and skills resulted
in a database I could work with. He
painstakingly normalized and entered all the data. My dream has become a reality and we can now
ask and answer some important questions about the demography of Herring Gulls
breeding in Lake Ontario in relation to environmental change and toxic chemical
exposure. It has been a pleasure to work
with André."
