BIOL 356 - Ornithology

Institution:

Denison University

Subject:

Description:

Ornithology is the study of birds. We will be investigating their evolutionary origins, adaptations for form and function, ecology, and systematics. A strong field and laboratory component will focus on learning the characteristics of the major groups found in the United States. We will also use the primary literature to guide our inquiry into the basic biology and ecology of birds. Ornithology qualifies as a "diversity" course for the major. (Fall 2008) (4 Credits)
