Owl Pellet Macro Monday

I went looking for my Barred Owl friend and I couldn't find him, but I found a bunch of pellets. You know, after the owl eats a critter it barfs up the fur and bones and such, that's a pellet.  Owl barf, lol.









Those are tiny little teeth.

Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign MckLinky. :) MM started on Sept 29, 2008 - THANX to all of you for helping make it such a fun start to the week!

owl pellet

While walking the woods I found an owl pellet, the part of the critter that the owl could not digest.  While gross, I also found it intriguing, nature is amazing.  The world is full of amazing sights!

The Mammoth Site

While in South Dakota, we stopped by Hot Springs to see the Mammoth Site, the World's Largest Mammoth Research Facility.

They built walls around it and a roof to protect it from the elements.

We were given a guided tour through the areas then left to explore on our own.

You can be part of the dig, I think that'd be really cool but I'm afraid I'd miss something.

Here's the website if you want to plan your own trip there. :)
