Here are some snaps from LA Science Weekend; an event by the New York Times & Atlas Obscura Society.

I was honored to be doing a workshop alongside the Moore Lab of Zoology about taxidermy for research and display. The guests were so fun and had so many great questions!

Also, I love working with the crew from the Moore Lab because it gives me the opportunity to ask my many bird questions to actual scientists. Getting an accurate piece of taxidermy is all about capturing natural behaviors and taxonomy.

Our Hummingbird cases from the Huntington exhibit even got to come out for an evening at the Line Hotel.

Did I mention we got to go to a Dino soirée at my alma mater, the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles?

A very doable weekend!
