Monitoring the Brown Pelican Colony in Nature

As I presented my case in literature review, this research is subject to discussing the Brown Pelican Colony Monitoring', it's also underscores useful dialogue with my instructor and the information necessary for presenting my research. Further, this project continues to provide necessary information about Brown Pelican Colony Monitoring', the historical distribution and habitat, their life history, threats and the reasons for their decline and ongoing recovery efforts to count and inspect the Brown Pelican nesting. I also provide an update about individual effort from Texas Parks and Wildlife from regulating the nesting areas to help minimize the effects of human disturbance.

As I completely mentioned in module 4-2: Research results', The Brown Pelican movement patterns and population structure within the preferential nesting environment is what we should be looking out for. Why? Because their population viability has recently risen in the context of the species delisting and this may come at the expense of climate change and the cause of oil spill wherever they are nested just to be precise.

With much efforts put together to keep this species in their colony and from the danger of human disturbance, we can involve in a conservation effort of a nongame wildlife resources by supporting the survival of this bird.

Connection to Capstone

As part of the research connection to capstone, it is necessary to provide a detail information about the Brown Pelican whom I believe is an endangered species under a protected Texas and Federal endangered species law. So, identifying this species (Brown Pelican) and its colony in relation to my research provides some helpful information necessary to complete and present the capstone project when it comes to its nesting in the Texas Wildlife.

The Brown Pelican is a special bird that has a 6-foot wingspread and weighs about 9 pounds, with feet's webbed to provide power while swimming in or under the water. The Pelican is a graceful flier with a powerful wingbeat that makes it one of the slowest among birds. Further, the adult Pelican have a white head and neck, often washed with yellow a grayish-brown body and dark brown to black belly. For those birds that breeds, they usually have a dark chestnut color at the back of the neck with a yellow patch at the back of the fore neck.

In conclusion, the Texas Parks and Wildlife has provided a wide range of exploring experiences about Brown Pelican and other species. This will ensure me prepare a presentation to my peers on my research findings. I chose presentation because it will enable me to craft the content of what Brown Pelican is all about by way of introducing the species to my intended audience and giving a proper evidence and some key takeaways why this bird is an endangered species.
