Last Thursday we headed to the High School Science Lab to dissect owl pellets with our science buddies. Mr. Macke introduced us to "Mr. Ed" who helped explain how a skull fit together and how the teeth of a horse worked in the process of consuming food. This information helped us identify the mouse skulls in the owl pellets and had us looking closely at their teeth. |
| We were looking through the owl pellets for skulls and other bones. |

| RS found a lot of bones in his owl pellet. He separated them into a pile. There were 4-5 mice in this one owl pellet! |
