Beak experiments!

Room 18 did a science experiment with different tools to show different beaks. We had pliers, a toothpick, tweezers, strainer and a straw! The first round was collecting water and putting the water to their stomach (the cups).                                        

              
We looked at the cups and saw who won that round....the straw! The strainer came last.

Second round the beaks had to crush the nuts !

The winner that round was the pliers!

Third round was catching worms! They were just string :-)
The pliers won again! We think the tweezers should have won though.

Last round catching fish - they weren't real fish
The strainer won!
After that we learned that every species of bird has their own specific kind of beak to catch food and eat.
If us humans took away their habitat, they wouldn't be able to adapt to a new one quickly and probably die out!
Nobody wants that....
