Bird Study (Boy Scout Merit Badge) Black Coffee Mug

Bird Study (Boy Scout Merit Badge) The "Bird Study" is a merit badge within the Boy Scouts of America program, designed to encourage and educate scouts about ornithology, which is the scientific study of birds. To earn this badge, scouts must demonstrate knowledge in various aspects of bird identification, behavior, and habitat. This includes correctly identifying different types of birds, understanding their characteristics, and observing their nests, eggs, and feeding habits. The aim is to promote an appreciation for avian life and encourage responsible practices towards wildlife conservation. Scouts are also expected to participate in bird-related activities such as banding or surveying bird populations, as well as completing a service project related to birds or their habitats.
