harrypottertitleI don't know about you folks, but I am obsessed with Harry Potter. I don't care what any of you think. I've started rereading the series before the movie releases in a few weeks, although the books are FAR better than the movies....anyhew....

 

For a whole month starting on October 30, 2010, the Harvard Museum of Natural History is celebrating the world of J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The museum invites muggles, witches, and wizards of all ages to embark on the Harry Potter Scavenger Hunt and uncover the science behind the magic.   Pick up your own HMNH “Marauder’s Map,” journey through the galleries to explore hundreds of real specimens from wolves to wolfsbane and test your knowledge of Harry’s world.
