the Beagle Project went to London today for a meeting but the highlight was getting a nose around the spirit room of Natural History Museum's
Darwin Centre, and what should we find, laid in state but this

More pickled specimens later, including those collected by Darwin's own hand and a coeleocanth! The real lady of the day was the wonderful, welcoming and knowledgeable curator
Mandy Holloway, for giving us the time and the tour. Many thanks.
OK, here's some more...
