Owl Pellets

We had two leftover owl pellets from a couple of years ago and the kids decided that they wanted to do them today.  Owl Pellets are made of the indigestible parts from rodent, birds, snakes, moles, etc that owls eat.  After eating, the owls regurgitate the pellet.  Pellets are filled with bones, beaks and hair - very interesting to dig through!!
