Students learn about adaptations by observing real feathers, nests, eggs and beaks

Program Description

By observing real feathers, nests, eggs and beaks, students will learn about the adaptations that make birds unique and how those adaptations help them survive in their environment. Students will recognize the advantages of physical adaptations by creating their own bird using various craft and other materials. This program inspires students with ways they can actively help birds in their own communities.
