Sci Fri: Bird Beak Experiment

 Chickadees, Sparrows

 

A little Exploration Station allowed us to take a look at bird beaks as tools.

 Our station included four tools and four representations of bird food; pistachio's (nuts), rice (seed), juice (nectar), tomato (meat!).
The challenge was to test which tools worked best for each type of food.
Then to determine which type of bird would possess which 'tool' for a beak.
