Pioneer Museum: Taxidermy Room

County museum in the former county courthouse filled with local artifacts and historical information. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. On the third floor is the most amazing feature: the Alex Walker Natural History Room, filled with, apparently, one man's exhaustive taxidermy collection of local and not-so-local fauna. Hundreds and hundreds of examples of realistic birds and animals. Hundreds. Breathtaking.
