Birds of a feather

Read Now
 
Beautiful birds! That's what our littlest scientists learned about in today's Kindergarten Kids. We explored all the different types of feathers or, plumage, that different birds could have and played a beak matching game! Could you figure out which beak belongs to which bird? We also compared various bird skulls and compared the structure of each beak, just like a true ornithologist. Live animal guests included the ring-necked dove and quail. NYC parks get A LOT of migrating birds so we helped them out by making recycled bird feeders. Food is important to all living things and gives our feathered friends the energy to fly! While on our nature walk, we used our eagle eyes to look for birds in the park - there were so many up in the treetops!
