Program Description

Event Details

Hosted by LKW STEM Foundation, Birds & Detectives is an engaging, hands-on STEM Workshop that introduces students to the science of Forensic Ornithology—the investigation of bird evidence to solve real-world mysteries. Participants step into the role of nature detectives as they observe birds, analyze feathers and tracks, collect data, and use scientific tools to draw evidence-based conclusions.

Through guided inquiry and outdoor exploration, students practice core STEM skills such as observation, pattern recognition, data recording, and critical thinking while strengthening social-emotional skills like collaboration, curiosity, and perseverance. The workshop connects science learning to real careers in wildlife biology, environmental science, conservation, and forensic investigation, helping students see how STEM is used beyond the classroom.

Designed to be interactive, age-appropriate, and inclusive, Birds & Detectives blends science, nature, and problem-solving to spark curiosity, build confidence, and inspire the next generation of STEM thinkers—one clue at a time.
