Birds & Their Beaks

Join our ranger in a discussion of how birds use their beaks and how the styles of each beak are engineered to do a specific job. Explore how different bird beak shapes are suited to specific types of food. Through hands-on experimentation you’ll use tools like tweezers, spoons, and droplets to “forage” for various items. Participants discover how beak shape impacts a bird’s ability to survive in its environment. Registration required, contact the visitor’s center.
