NORTH AMERICAN BALD EAGLES the Labrador duck were preserved and the Museum's exhibit of this bird is the only one in existence. Other birds on display are seriously threatened. The California condor, which weighs about 20 pounds and has a wing- spread of almost 10 feet, is among the world's largest flying birds. Only about 40 condors remain today. The whooping crane, of which less than 50 survive, is shown here in a former nesting place in Minnesota. The United States' national emblem, the bald eagle, has so de- creased in numbers that its survival is seriously threatened in many areas. The Hall of North American Birds Is situated in the Museum's first building, which was opened in 1877. The original bird groups were prepared in the first decade of this century under the able direction of Dr. Frank M. Chapman, orni- thologist and educator. Eventually the exhibits deteriorated, and the hall had to be closed for renovation. When it was re- opened in 1964, it was dedicated to Dr. Chapman in honor of his lifetime of serv- ice to the Museum and to the preserva- tion of wildlife.
