Senior Curator Dr David Waterhouse guides you through a whistle-stop tour of our Natural History and Geology collections, from birds’ eggs to fossilised mammoth bones. Go behind the scenes to discover how we store plant specimens in the herbarium, which extinct bird provided the two most important eggs in our collection, and even how to preserve soft-bodied invertebrates through pickling!
