About This Activity
3-6 year olds: Children meet colourful tropical birds flying freely in the Bloedel dome, then head outside to spot winter birds with binoculars. They test how feathers keep birds warm and dry, try "beak tools" to pick up different foods, and design a bird of their very own. 7-12 year olds: Students compare tropical and winter birds to discover how environment shapes survival. They observe birds at Bloedel and in Queen Elizabeth Park with binoculars and field guides, test feathers for warmth and waterproofing, map migration routes, and design an adaptive bird built for its habitat.
