Fun at the Harvard Museum of Natural History
I can’t believe I waited so long to bring Leo here. He had a fun time with the taxidermy and with the mineral collection.
Here he is – with Bessie or Victoria? — outside the Bio Labs Building
Leo and the lion
Checking out an impressively large European wolf
Leo the ham!
