Fall migration is in full swing, and lots of birds are heading south for the winter! 🍂✈️ But some birds stick with us all year long, and owls are one of them. 🦉💛 This week, our forest schoolers got to know these year-round neighbors by dissecting owl pellets. 🔍 Wait, what's an owl pellet? 🤔 🍽️ Owls often swallow their prey whole 🦴 They can't digest the bones and fur 🫘 So they cough them up as a neat little pellet! Inside, our young scientists found tiny bones and pieced together what each owl had eaten. 🐭🦴 Their big discovery? Owls eat a LOT of rodents, which makes them one of nature's best pest controllers, every season of the year. 🌙🌿 Owl pellets are a natural, safe, and humane way to learn about owls. No owls are harmed! 💚 #ForestSchool #OwlPellets #NatureBasedLearning #OutdoorClassroom #DunwoodyNatureCenter
