As winter approaches and the days are getting shorter, the birds of the Forest Gallery will be looking for roosting sites earlier in the day.
As a result, the Forest Gallery will close at 4:30pm daily starting from the 17th May until early August.
This early closure allows the birds to settle into their roost sites for the night without being disturbed by wandering visitors.
So on your trip to the Museum this winter, be sure to visit the Forest Gallery before 4:30pm.
