About this event
Ever wondered what an owl had for dinner? Join us for a fascinating hands-on workshop where you’ll become a wildlife detective! In this family-friendly session, you’ll carefully examine real owl pellets and discover the tiny bones, skulls, and other clues hidden inside. With our guidance, you’ll learn how to identify small mammals from their skeletons and uncover the secrets of an owl’s hunting habits.
All tools, materials, and reference charts will be provided. You don’t need any previous experience – just curiosity and a sense of adventure!
