TAKE TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTY SEVEN f

Monday's Critters

I have to say that taxidermy is not something to which I have given a great deal of thought. One has seen many a natural history exhibit over the years but not been overly enamoured.

Inverness museum changed that for me. Not only were all the exhibits very finely crafted, but there was also this open exhibit encouraging 'touchy-feely'.

I lingered a little longer than was decorous, perhaps, as my hand took in the luxury and warmth of the otter's fur!

  3. Skilful taxidermy is akin to a fine art.
