american museum of natural history

i took a vacation day this friday to take some time for myself and it was wonderful! got to walk around the city on a nice day and finally check out this museum. it is now one of my favorite places in the city.

i paid extra to go to the special Frogs exhibit which was pretty neat...some of the frogs were a little too creepy for me but these are the ones i like!



clockwise from top left: dart poison frog; ??? sorry cannot remember; waxy monkey frog; chinese gliding frog

the hall of biodiversity and one display from the new york city mammals


the large mammal displays were just amazing! so realistic with the beautiful paintings that blend seamlessly. the artists did an amazing job and i think it would be so fun to do that kind of work!






from the hall of north american birds. looks almost like a painting!


then i went and enjoyed a shake shack shroom burger (portobello mushroom stuffed with cheese and then fried! yumyum. i was too hungry to snap a shot of it but here is what their regular burger looks like..
