Harvard Museum of Natural History

I really like spending part of a day at a museum. Thankfully, there are a bunch of them in the Boston area; including some really fascinating ones on the campus of Harvard University. Today, I visited the Harvard Museum of Natural History and saw a lot of interesting objects and curiosities. There were entire rooms filled with the works of multiple lifetimes; both in the various flora/fauna that filled the exhibition cabinets and the storied histories in the lives that were devoted towards taxonomy in the making of the museum.

Lots of pictures of the museum, no flash, of course
