Backwoods Belinda

Today the volunteers at WPIT had a visitor from Billy's teammate - Belinda. She said that even though they hadn't captured any animals on camera yet, she knew they were there. She brought with her some owl pellets to see if we could help her understand which creatures owls eat. So we set to work investigating with our very special tools and identification charts.



Backwoods Belinda helped out!

Some very close inspections


Checking the charts carefully


We found out that owls regurgitate a lot of fur and feathers!


Cleaning our larger finds
