Invent your own Lost Monster and learn about collection items in our spring display cabinet in Discover Nature. Decode the language of spring flowers in Discover History. 

On Tuesday 22nd April, we'll be marking Earth Day. Visit Discover Nature throughout the day to learn about fossil fuels and renewable energy sources.
