Colin,

When I worked for the Zoological Society of Florida/ Miami  Metrozoo, we
created an aviary with a ³birds are dinosaurs² focus.  Evolutions was a
major theme throughout the exhibit.  I would be happy to talk to you further
about the exhibit ­ what worked, what didn¹t...   Overall the exhibit worked
really well and was well received by the public.
