A few weeks ago one of the homeschooling moms put together an order from Home Science Tools for owl pellets. Today we all got together & dissected them. It was so cool! I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. B really got in to it & had a good time doing his on his own. N decided he did NOT want to touch it. That was okay by me as I got to do his for him. :-) It was a nice break from the regular school routine.
I love doing owl pellets. We did them during a nature study we took last year. It was very fun.
ReplyDeleteEver watch Dirty Jobs on the Discovery Channel? The host did an Owl Pellets segment. He got to COLLECT them...AND dissect them. I didn't realize how useful these things are in the science world!
ReplyDeleteI bought some for Trevor a year ago. He was a little creeped out by them. I thought they were soooo cool! My cats tried their hardest to get them! I still have one that maybe he'll appreciate a little more down the road!
ReplyDeleteWe have never done these but it looks so cool. I should order some. We have actually tried to find them in the woods but never have found even one, LOL.
