Museum of BirdsWebsiteThe first thing you see immediately away upon entering the museum is an egg from an elephant bird, a giant bird that has gone extinct. Though it is a replica, visitors can actually feel it. The exhibition rooms have displays on the origins of birds and the history of their evolution, the restoration of Archaeopteryx fossils, and stuffed and mounted birds from around the world organized by species. Be sure to check out the corners where you can catch a glimpse of nature and seasons of Lake Teganuma, as well as the past and present of the birds that have lived there. The elephant bird was the world’s first giant bird, and was only found in Madagascar.
