Lesson 21 Habitats: Adaptations Bird Feet

Hello again!

Check out the digital poster below as a resource. Then ask yourself the following questions to connect back to what we learned yesterday:

Could a bird with a beak meant for tearing also have feet for wading?

Could a bird with a beak meant for cracking also have feet for catching prey?
