It was around 12:00 in the afternoon when finished touring the IPB. After the DTRI and the IPB, who wouldn't be hungry? We headed to the Makiling Botanical Garden to eat but it started to drizzle and rain. Unfortunately, we had to eat and play game number 3 of EcoDama INSIDE the jam- packed bus. As soon as the smell of our lunches was gone and we finished our EcoDama games, we headed to the Museum of Natural History with our umbrellas.
We expected that we would be toured around the Museum and learn more about the natural resources endemic to our country. Teacher Ryan said that we would be free to roam around the museum with our buddies or groups. We were all really excited because for the past two destinations, we were toured by a lecturer but now, we were free to explore by ourselves! We learned so much from just looking through the glass window and reading its captions. We even saw some animal fetuses! Preserved, of course. Actually, most of the displays were preserved but we still got to see them.

| A beautiful Barn- owl Tyto alba |
- NameCommon Name: Barn- owlScientific Name: Tyto alba
- Characteristics
For us, we think that owls are naturally awesome creatures. So maybe that's why one of the Science Adventurers, Khael, couldn't keep his eyes off the TV screen in the bus when the Legends of Ga'Hoole was showing. So anyways, back to owls, they're nocturnal, meaning they sleep all day (Don't you just envy owls for sleeping all day?), and maybe hunt at night. Speaking of hunting, owls have great hunting skills. We also chose the owl because we think it's creepy and "cute" at the same time.

Owls are predators. They eat smaller organisms like rats and some also eat fruits so owls are omnivores meaning they eat both animals and plants or fruits.
Well, that's all for now, folks! Stay tuned for more blogs coming up.
