With half an hour to spare between meetings in central London, I stumbled upon this amazing little museum, called the Grant Museum of Zoology. In it, there is a tiny room called The Micrarium.
It says that “the Micrarium is a place for tiny things. It’s often said that 95 percent of known animal species are smaller than your thumb, but most museums fill their displays with large animals. The Micrarium sheds light on some of the smallest animals.” Hello harvest bug, hello snipe fly and hello nepa cinerea nymph.
What’s true for museums is true for life. So many small gestures, actions and things often get overlooked.
