The body of the unfortunate Domino Sparrow will join other sparrows in the Natural History Museum of Rotterdam in a “Hall of Fame” exhibit. The Domino Sparrow was shot last November in a bid to save a domino-felling record chance.
Other birds will join the Domino Sparrow in the museum’s Sparrow Hall of Fame. For example, a sparrow killed by a live cricket ball during a 1936 cricket match in the U.K., currently housed in the MCC Museum in London, will probably be included in the exhibit.
The Sparrow Hall of Fame will be open to the public on 14 November 2006, exactly one year after the Domino Sparrow’s death.
