Up in the bell tower.

One nice thing about Art Fair is the opening of the Burton Bell Tower to the public. I climbed up there for my first look out from the heights. It provided a good opportunity to take a photo of the Natural History Museum, which is not easily photographed from the ground: note the large tree that is near the front of the building.

One of the many things that you might not see about the "UMMZ" is that it has the largest preserved fish collection (diversity and numbers) at a public institution in the country (and possibly the world).
