Join us in the Science Forum for a 15-20 minute engaging science demonstration that will help you see the world in a whole new way. Demonstrations are free and appropriate for visitors ages 5 and above. Schedule subject to change.
Explore the unseen lives of owls in this hands-on demonstration. Together, we will use museum specimens to learn about some of owls’ unique adaptations, like big eyes, specialized ears, quiet wings, and sharp claws. What do these adaptations tell us about how owls eat? How are these modern raptors related to dinosaurs? Find out what an owl pellet is (Hint: it's not poop!) and dissect a real owl pellet to learn about the owl's diet. Come and discover the role of these birds of prey in the food chain!
