Today we visited the Biodiversity Museum "Biomuseo" in Panama. The first thing I noticed about the museum was the architecture. Unlike most museums, this museum was partially indoors and partially outdoors which I think really goes well with the themes of coexisting with nature and wildlife. 
In the first room, there were many sculptures of Panamanian wildlife. The Harpy Eagle statue caught my eye right away due to its size (it's massive). We would later learn that the Harpy Eagle is actually the National bird of Panama, and is classified as a nearly threatened species.
I really enjoyed seeing all of the sculptures in this area. As an artist, being able to see art of this scale is just amazing. I also enjoy ancient animals, so learning about the prehistoric creatures was one of my favorite parts.
