Bird Beaks with Marcus and Jake
Saturday, March 27, 3pm - 4pm
Please register at: https://dallaslibrary.librarymarket.com/events/bird-beaks-marcus-and-jake-trinity-river-audubon-center
Birds have a very important tool that they use for just about everything: their beak! Join Marcus and Jake as they dive deep into the world of bird beaks. From building nests, cracking shells, and hunting prey to putting on a fun display, learn all about the different ways birds use various types of beaks. Afterwards, stick around to learn how to make your very own bird feeder at home to give some of those birds something to eat!
Easy bird feeder supplies:
-Pipe cleaner or string
-Plain cheerio cereal (it is important for the birds that it does not have any extra sugar or other flavors)
This program is available online only. Registration is required for interaction. Details on how to participate will be emailed. Emails may go to your spam folder.
