Episode 133 - OH, TO BE A BIRD
Today, RÚV English is in Borgarnes.
We return to the Borgarnes Museum to take a look at the Oh, To Be A Bird exhibition - https://safnahus.is/oh-to-be-a-bird/ - originally based on the life work of two taxidermists, Kristján Geirmundsson and Jón M. Guðmundsson, it has specimens of over 205 birds of 116 species, including some that are considered very rare outside of Iceland.
Darren is again guided through the exhibits by the museum's Kolbrún Björnsdóttir. The museum is free to enter and enjoy.
You can also listen to this and all other RÚV English programming on Spotify, Apple, or any other podcast place, and subscribe too, to never miss a show.
