The main objective of the Dundee Science Festival is to increase science in the community and to widen access to science. To this end, I helped build an interactive booth with several different activities for the public of all ages to participate in. Specifically, I designed an educational poster game where participants matched birds to the nesting environment and type of nest each builds based on descriptive life history clues. The booth was a huge success and it will be used in future outreach events. For a fantastic photo overview of all of the fun the nest building team had see here!
