Red-vented Bulbul

Field research on an introduced bird species in Houston, Texas

I conducted field research on the spatial distribution and population density of invasive Red-vented Bulbuls in Houston Heights, completing 40 line-transect surveys across the study area.

I later expanded this work using citizen-science data to examine regional population growth patterns and their dynamics relating to urban environments.
