I have three weeks from today, including spring break, to come up with an idea for a college science project, and to carry out the experiment multiple times to collect data. Please help me find one that is relatively inexpensive and not to time consuming. I tried pondering ideas on my own, but I have come up with nothing. Hmm, maybe telling you some of my interests might help for an insightful idea: music, driving, studying (yes, I don't have time to "have a life"), hehe food, and computers I suppose. Thanks, hopefully I won't have to stress much longer. Both variables have to be quanitifiable (measurable).

Do birds use color to determine what food to eat?
Set out multiple bird feeders. Put identical seed in each, except use food coloring to dye the seed different colors.
Rotate the position of the feeders. Measure how much food is eaten from each feeder daily/weekly/monthly to draw conclusions. If you have hummingbirds where you live it might be easier to do it with hummingbird nectar.

Easy. Do a baking soda and vinegar volcano.
