Birds: of Missouri: Winter Survival

Walk-in (all ages) Possessing the right tools is the key to survival for birds as the wintery chill of January surrounds us! Learn about the specialized structures and adaptations that help birds survive in their native habitats. Participate in hands-on exploration and investigation of different types of skulls and beaks. Dissect an owl pellet and look for the secrets that rest within and make a platform bird feeder to take home. Birds stay very busy during the winter, come by and learn what they're up to! If accommodations are needed, please e-mail the instructor at least one week prior to the program.
