This unit will explore the topics of natural selection, bird vocalizations, courtship rituals and mating displays, nesting, and how reproductive success is measured. Students will not only be able to construct explanations and interpret data, but also understand more about the ecology of birds and begin “thinking like a bird” in terms of habitat and resource needs. For a summary of the lessons you can refer to the document posted below. If you have any questions feel free to contact the Education Coordinator.
