About the event

Join this family event at Kingcombe for a morning dedicated to these handsome birds and the animals they prey on.

Rather like fur balls produced by cats, owl pellets contain the bones, feathers and fur of their recent meals. Using tweezers and magnifying glasses we will tease apart the pellets and identify the skulls etc within using special identification charts. You can also take some of your finds home with you.
