Do Birds Have A Sense Of Smell? | The Curiosity Desk

Hanover’s John Goldthwait reached out to the Curiosity Desk for help in answering a question he’s long had about our fine feathered friends. “One of my hobbies is to feed the local birds,” he said. “And I’ve always wondered, do birds have a sense of smell?” For answers to John’s question, we journeyed to the Mass Audubon Blue Hills Trailside Museum in Milton, to meet raptor specialist Norman Smith. He says that if you asked the questions 25 years ago, the answer would be no. But — we’ve come a long way since the early 1990s. We now know that Pluto is not a planet. We know that Apple stock was a significantly better investment than Beanie Babies. And we know that most birds — in fact probably all birds — have at least some sense of smell.
