    Hiking

    With kids? You might want to show them the back of the structure with the name of the museum. Maybe they roughly know the difference between a woodlark, kingfisher and nightjar? And do they already know the slippery snake? Twelve animals: the big 5 and magnificent 7 of Bosland. Oh, there's a wooden effigy of a nightjar before you get to the museum (when you come from the parking lot).
