Celebrate National Bird Week With Magpie Scientists!

Join us for National Bird Week to learn all about the fascinating lives of birds! Year 3 – S2 Year 4 – S2 Year 5 – S3 Year 6 – S3 Year 7 – S4 Year 8 – S4 Year 9 – S5 Year 10 – S5 Celebrate National Bird Week With Magpie Scientists! Come learn about the amazing diversity of birds this National Bird Week!

Lizzie and Grace are PhD students and behavioural ecologists working with magpies at the University of Western Australia. Lizzie studies why some magpies are smarter than others, and Grace studies how magpies are impacted by man-made noise. Together, they will show you how to identify birds based on features such as colour, size, and shape. They will also introduce you to some of the fascinating things birds do – from mimicry, to deception, to dance!

As part of the Powerhouses 100 Climate Conversations weekly podcast, selected innovators have presented simple positive messages to schools about what can be done to save our planet.

Brendan CONDON began his career in criminology helping people reintegrate into society via reforestation. His goal is now to explore ways in which we can live fossil fuel free. This includes reverse mining the atmospere by absorbing excess carbon. How? Sustainable property development such as that found in The Cape in Victoria, rooftop gardens in cities and fast rotation crops more suited to extreme weather events including bamboo and hemp for greener 3D concrete printed houses.
