Western Foundation of Vertebrate Zoology reviews
4 Omg, Disneyland for birders and those interested in animals, nests, eggs, taxidermy, evolution, and life at large!
Our guide, Paul Grindrod (Science Education Coordinator), is clearly an ornithologist as he answered every question we had with ease, and taught us so much along the way with a number of engaging facts and stories. We felt so lucky to have connected with him.
Mimi Damwyk, the Collections Assistant, also was wonderfully well informed, easily pointing out the drawers, amongst thousands, that help shells from a elephant bird egg.
Organizations are only as strong as their people, and theirs are strong!
We Loved our time there exploring such a wide array of species and entering this space is mind blowing in its size and depth
Try to reserve for the mirror room as early as possible. Staff didn't notify us but spaces fill up super quickly so as we were in line it closed and we were unable to do it.
Didn't actually go in because my friend and I didn't know that you had to make an appointment. Would have been nice if they listed hours of operation or made a notice saying that they need appointments
Visiting here should be on everyone's bucket list. You cannot leave here without learning something wonderful about birds. A big thank you to the members, staff, volunteers, and directors that keep this operation going!
