[mukto-mona] Birds found to repay help in battle (World Science e-newsletter)

* Tit-for-tat: birds found to repay wartime 
help

Pied flycatchers and red-winged blackbirds share two
traits, studies suggest: they're feisty defenders
and shrewd account keepers.

* Atoms interact unexpectedly, researchers

* Study finds lasting benefit in banned 
mushroom drug:

* Secret of the great violins? The wood, study
suggests:

* CORRECTION

Due to an editing error, the June 26 article "Most 
'primitive' four-legged animal described" stated 
that early animals made a major transition "from 
land to sea." The shift was actually the other way 
around. World Science apologizes for the error.
