Firstly, children had asked to draw bird picture, then semi-constructed interview has made with children. By analyzing data gathered for this research, it is seen that significant amount of children drawn bird with outline drawing style (f=167, %=51.3). 181 children (f=181, %=55.6) drawn basic features of birds, and 83 children (%=25.5) drawn them as behavior shown. Majority of the children said that they see birds on outdoor environments (f=279, %=85.8), and also significant amount of children stated that the fundamental property of bird is their ability to fly (f=127, %=39.0). After analyzing these findings, it it seen that children have non-biological based, only physical property based modal and physical mental models about birds and their natural properties. Also, it was determined that children have developed their basic knowledge of birds in outdoor environments.
