  • ZOO 5475: Avian Science

    3.00 Credits
    The University of West Florida

    Avian Science is a course that describes and provides experience in the study of birds in order to answer questions about their basic ecology, with special emphasis on techniques for data collection and data management typically associated with research and monitoring of bird populations. Topics include species identification (visual and by song), movements and migration, habitat selection, foraging behavior, reproduction and nesting ecology, and demography (estimating survival, population size, nest success). Avian Science emphasizes S.T.E.M education, covering aspects of science, engineering, technology, and math important to many areas of ecology. Many of the techniques and concepts taught in this course, especially the sections on movements and spatial ecology, habitat selection, and demography, apply to fauna other than birds. Bird identification and survey experiences focus on species found on the UWF campus and on wintering waterfowl in local estuaries. The course consists of approximately 1/3 lectures and discussion, 1/3 laboratory exercise, and 1/3 field experiences. The class meets once per week for 2.75 hours. In addition, participation in one supervised day long (approximately12-hrs) bird survey is required outside of normal class time, and may need to take place on a weekend (depending on survey schedule and weather). A one weekend field trip is required in this course, and students are expected to have the ability to hike and do field work. Graduate students will be assigned additional work.
