Example of a Report
Text
Title
The Pelican Report
General Classification
The white pelican
is one of the most successful fish-eating birds.
Description
The success is largely due to its command hunting
behaviour. A group, perhaps two dozen birds, will gather in a curved arc
some distance offshore. The birds then begin to
move forward towards the shore,
beating the water furiously with their wings,
driving the fish before them.
When the water is shallow enough for the birds to reach
the fish, the formation breaks up as
each bird dips its bill into the water to scoop up its meal. As the bird lifts its head, the water drains from its bill leaving the fish which are then swallowed. Pelicans are
among the oldest group of birds, Fossils of this
genus have been found dating
back 40 million
years.
