    Can any of you bird brains please identify this skull in our collection? It&#39;s simply listed in our database as &quot;bird skull&quot; and there&#39;s no provenance data either. Even a broad category would be helpful. I&#39;m wondering if it could be a gull? @PaoloViscardi@toot.community maybe you know or have the contacts? #nature #skull #ID #NottNatHist #Museum #birds #bird

    The displays in our new &amp;#39;Curating Nature&amp;#39; gallery are gradually taking shape. This section is about geological collections. For each type of collection in this gallery there will be a &amp;#39;behind the scenes&amp;#39; section to represent storage with objects en mass, juxtaposed with a &amp;#39;display&amp;#39; section to interpret the collection and highlight key objects and stories. #NottNatHist #Museum #geology #collections #WollatonHall #rocks

    Marine reptile fun! @WitcherClo led an outreach event at Wollaton Hall #NottNatHist Museum a few weeks ago. We challenged visitors to ID the fossil bones of an ichthyosaur and work out where they fit in the skeleton. #WollatonHall #Fossils #Ichthyosaur #reptile #palaeontology #museum #FossilFriday
