All,
You can see more of Part 1 of my interview with Nat Rice, collection manager at the Academy in Philadelphia here: http://blogs.crikey.com.au/northern/2013/04/18/nate-rice-on-musk-ducks-and-going-batshit-crazy-for-birds/
Here is a teaser: “Some of the most famous ornithologists in the world have been associated with us – John Audubon, Alexander Wilson, Rudolph Meyer De Schauensee, James Bond, Leo Joseph, Frank Gill – all of those folks have worked here and contributed to the collection and to the growth of the collection.” The Academy dates back to 1812 and has been on this site since 1876.
