Edinburgh International Science Festival!

4/8/2016

Lauren, Sophie and Alexis spent two days at the Edinburgh International Science Festival as part of the pop-up science event. Our exhibit 'Why Do Birds Build Nests?' included two games where you travelled around Scotland and the world to match the bird and its nests to its environment. Our display included two hands-on (beak-on!) activities: the first was to build a nest that was able to hold a chocolate egg, the second was to build a nest (and eggs, and bird) to take home. Lastly, we had nests that you could touch, made by experts - the birds themselves! There was also a larger-than-life video of our zebra finches building in the laboratory and wild weaver birds building in South Africa.

We had hundreds of people stop by to visit us in the amazing National Museum of Scotland!

Thanks to the BBSRC for funding to deliver this event.
