Birds on the brain

Read Now
 
Birds are marvelous engineers! Today we examined real birds nests to see how they were constructed and what materials were used by the birds. Natural fibers like dry grasses and twigs are mostly what they use but, we noticed that some nests had feathers inside to help keep the baby birds warm. While outside, we tried making our own nests of natural materials. Back inside we met some canaries and wrapped things up by making a bird craft!
