Birds of a Feather

  • 4505 Forest Avenue Des Moines, IA, 50311 United States (map)

March 15, 18, 19 (9:00 am-12:00 pm) ages 4+ $145

We’ll focus on our feathered friends, learn what ornithology is, and make an Audubon inspired “colored plate”. We will learn about our native Des Moines backyard birds and make one from paper mâché. We’ll feed chickens, collect eggs, and look at the forms and functions of feathers. We’ll do our own feather collecting, observe and illustrate chickens, talk about our national bird, and make a little bird feeder.
