It is a hidden treasure! Just cross the Coleman Bridge and turn right on Greate Road and head toward under the bridge. I hope nothing has changed in the 8 years since I’ve been there because I’m taking friends!

The receptionist needs training on customer service because she was rude and snotty when I called to ask about the osprey program. "We don't do birds." After pointing out the Osprey Cam, she said that would be the Media department's area and transferred me there -- to a voice mail.

I brought students there ranging from 6th through 12th grade. Everyone came back to school talking about what they saw. The kids were excited also about the scientists answering their questions, that they were trusted in their labs, and got to hold specimens! This is a phenomenal team!
