About
For many people, birds are considered the most vivid expression of life. They are seen as symbols of freedom and are admired for their liveliness, beauty, and vitality. But what becomes of them in death? Following a tour of MIDNIGHT guided by Stephanie Vegh, Head of Learning, join Mark Peck, ornithologist from the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM), for his presentation discussing the art, science, and nature found in the ROM’s bird collection.
