I am not sure about the crowd size on a Sunday morning, but it is a very large museum so there is lots to see. If there is something you specifically want to see just gather around and wait your tour. Or you can go on to other things and try back later. There are some informational cards by many displays, and you can enjoy looking at them as you wait.
