BirdSleuth Investigator

Our student magazine, BirdSleuth Investigator, is available as a free download!

Kids from around the country love going outside and watching birds. Then they got curious and start asking questions about what they are seeing. Those questions turn into research projects and innovative studies that the students design themselves. We invite you and your students to be inspired by the results of this scientific exploration in our beautifully illustrated magazine!

• Do Black-capped Chickadees prefer a certain time of day to visit?
• Do hummingbirds prefer feeders up high or feeders down low?
• The frugal backyard birder: maximizing variety and minimizing cost

Our annual publication, written by and for students, is also beautifully illustrated by these K-12 kids. We think you’ll be amazed at their great work!
