Owl Pellets

     Owl Pellets

In our class, we got little owl pellets that was wrapped in tinfoil. We unwrapped them and we were given a magnifying glass, a little sharp stick that was skinny and also a little spoon to help us dig. In the pellets you would find rodent and bird skulls in them and some other bones of little animals that the owls would eat in the forest. It was really fun to discover lots of bones that an owl would eat! At first, I was really disgusted, because I was touching things that an owl would eat! But then, I was really interested for me to find little bones and skulls! I also found stuff like dirt and little things of dust!! I didn’t have lots of time but I had a little time to put the bones together and made a little animal of my own! It was a really fun exercise to discover animals that owls eat in the food chain! This was connected to our unit of inquiry, because we got a first feel of what the food chain is for animals and also some insects and plants!

I think that I could have done better with reacting so silly at first but I found out that it was really fun! I think this was a FUN activity! I think it was super duper fun! ~Maleia
