The Cape Cod Museum of Natural History
presents
Nature Screen “The Nest”
An Original PBS NATURE Documentary


BREWSTER, MA ­Nature Screen at the Cape Cod 
Museum of Natural History in Brewster presents 
the PBS NATURE Documentary, “The Nest” Sunday, April 17, 2016 at 1pm.

Bird nests come in all shapes and sizes, crafted 
from an inexhaustible diversity of materials, 
including fur, grasses, leaves, mosses, sticks 
and twigs, bones, wool, mud and spider silk. 
Quite a few also contain man-made materials – 
colorful twine, bits of wire, even plastic bags. 
Each one is a remarkable work of art, built with 
just a beak!  The film begins with a museum 
collection of nests and branches out to scenes in 
the wild all over the world, where birds arrive 
at diverse nesting grounds to collect, compete 
for, reject, steal and begin to build with 
carefully selected materials, crafting homes for 
the all-important task of protecting their eggs and raising their young.


Free with Museum Admission
