Dr. Curry conducted field studies on Galápagos mockingbirds for his Ph.D. dissertation between 1981 and 1985. He continued collaborative research on the mockingbirds with Dr. Peter R. Grant, Princeton University, through 1991. Curry also conducted short-term field studies of:
- Bahama Mockingbirds (Mimus gundlachii) and Northern Mockingbirds (M. polyglottos) on San Salvador Island, Bahamas, in 1987
- Tropical Mockingbirds (Mimus gilvus) in Venezuela and on Bonaire in 1988
- Northern Mockingbirds in Pennsylvania in 1991-1992
- Socorro Mockingbirds (Mimus graysoni), in collaboration with Juan E. Martínez-Gómez, from 1993 to 1996
In 2004, Curry and Martínez-Gómez began studying the avifauna of Cozumel, focusing on the conservation status of the endemic Cozumel Thrasher (Toxostoma guttatum).
