During the preparation for the upcoming expo Birds of Paradise we have transported 23 stuffed birds from the collection of the Koninklijk Belgisch Instituut voor Natuurwetenschappen (KBIN – Royal Belgian Institute for Natural Sciences) from Brussels to Antwerp.

The collection also includes part of the collection that used to belong to the Antwerp Zoo where it was used as a study collection.
These stuffed birds, from peacocks to swans, display a variety of stunning feathers in all different shapes and colors which will fit in very nicely with the silhouettes featured in the expo.
