How can we make a feather waterproof?
14th Nov 2018
Mike from World of Owls told us Barn Owls can struggle to find food when it rains as their feathers are not waterproof. We carried out an experiment to see if we could make a feather waterproof. We tested different things and discovered our paper feathers became waterproof when we added wax and when we added oil.
