What bird species do you know?  When you picture them in your mind, what do their beaks look like?  Chances are, you know several different birds and know that their beak shapes can look very different from one another.  Why would this be?  Why is the large and curved hawk’s beak, for example, so different looking from the short and pointy beak of a chickadee?  Well, it has to do with picking out and eating certain foods.

In this JAM, you will practice using different types of utensils as “beaks” to gather a variety of different food sources.  You will notice that some utensils are better at picking up certain food shapes and sizes than others.  During your foraging, we will keep track of which beak shape picks up which food best!
