The Brown Noddy (Anous stolidus) is a seabird commonly found in coastal regions of Pakistan. With its distinctive brown plumage and pointed tail, it is easily recognizable. Brown Noddies typically inhabit offshore islands, rocky cliffs, and mangrove forests along the coastline. They are known for their agile flight, often seen gliding effortlessly over the water surface. In Pakistan, Brown Noddies are primarily distributed along the southern coast, including areas such as Karachi, Makran Coast, and the Indus Delta region. They are known to form large colonies for breeding purposes, nesting in crevices of cliffs or in dense vegetation on offshore islands.

Brown Noddies exhibit social behavior, often nesting and roosting in large colonies with other seabird species such as terns and gulls. During the breeding season, they engage in elaborate courtship displays, which may involve aerial acrobatics and vocalizations.
