EXHIBITION
THE NATURAL HISTORY Museum (NHM) in London has launched a new exhibition called “Birds: Brilliant & Bizarre”, which will run until January 5, 2025.
The specimen exhibition aims to invite visitors into the world of birds providingamazing spectacle of a murmuration and the sound of the dawn chorus to the smell of a seabird egg and the feeling of a hummingbird’s heartbeat. It will reveal the behaviours and adaptations that have propelled birds to succeed on every continent in the world, including zebra finches that sing to warn their unhatched young of high temperatures and vampire finches gorging on blood. Visitors will be able to encounter unfamiliar species and view familiar ones in a fresh light.
