Academy of Natural Sciences: Birds of Paradise

One can always expect to see amazing things at The Academy of Natural Sciences.  Running until September 1st, the Birds of Paradise exhibit is no exception as it highlights the beautiful dances performed by the winged residents of the rainforests in New Guinea.  Watch and listen as exotic birds puff-up, prance, and sing to stand out from the crowd.  Join in the fun with your own moves at this exciting and interactive exhibit - FREE with admission.

 

Birds of Paradise is an absolutely stunning exhibit with gorgeous visuals and fun, interactive sections (Dance, Dance, Evolution anyone?).  Interesting for both adults and kids, it teaches and entertains in a way that never fails at the Academy of Natural Sciences.  History, science, and the natural world are unveiled in the form and movements of undeniably some of the prettiest members of the animal kingdom.

 

Enter the exhibit with a stroll through the New Guinea rainforest.  You can't see the birds yet, but you start to hear them.  They're out there - among the leaves and the trees - and they're gearing up for a show.  Then you get your first glimpse of these exotic birds.  As you travel around the exhibit you discover more and more about them, and what it takes to study them in the wild.  They're bright and colorful, they move with a rhythm all their own, and humans are fascinated by them.  But why do they do this.....?  Daily Vacationer highly recommends getting to the museum to find out before this exhibit is gone!
