After school today I went with some friends to the Fribourg Museum! It was raining hard and freezing, so we bought roasted chestnuts and ate them on the bus! Too delicious! The museum had some interesting exhibits on rocks and Swiss geological history, but my favorite part was the giant collection of animals. There were rooms and rooms of cases filled with preserved animals from all over the world, and a hall completely dedicated to songbirds! Each species had a window where they were placed in a painted habitat and you could press a button to see a light illuminate a bird and hear their song. Below is a picture of a living habitat filled with tiny mice. Julie said that in the spring there are even babies! They moved so quickly that I only got one good picture of a single mouse. See if you can spot him!
