Bird nest with plastic bag embedded

4 bird egg models and pictures of the birds

Great convo. Tough topics. Happened by this plastic filled nest on our wall tonight. Ugh. On a happier note, support from Michigan Audubon helps me help K-12 kids & teachers explore the amazing world of bird eggs with these cool models. Next gen breeding bird surveyors?

After months of planning, it’s MSTA Conference time - the best science educator week of the year! If you’re joining us in Lansing this weekend and need anything, find someone with one of these tees or a Board Member badge. See you soon, science friends!

Keeping an eye on our Great Backyard Bird Count from the neighbor’s maple tree. Hello.

Just finished. We’re gonna be talking about this book for a long time. So good. So important. Grateful.

Why do I do this work? Because I once had a science teacher who changed the way I saw the world, who showed me how to learn about that world, who inspired me to be a thinker, and who convinced me that anyone--ANYONE--could be a scientist. Thank you, science teachers!

Shout out to Crane stickers! Also Birds. Also Science. Also Education. Also Ope. Crane sticker from amazing Anishinaabe artist mishiikenhkwe www.redbubble.com/people/mishi...

Our @mstamich.bsky.social Elevating Elementary Science cohort had great time talking Community/Citizen Science tonight with @loreegriffinburns.bsky.social

A female anhinga bird sits in a tree with rain falling.

First post here. A is for anhinga. She looks pretty striking to me posing like that in a tree in the rain. Yes, Rihanna is singing ☔️ in my head.
