    Location: Seneca Meadows Education Center

    Okay Mom, it may sound a little gross, but kids love dissecting owl pellets! What is an owl pellet, you ask? It’s a small packet of things that the owl cannot digest, and he, um, well, regurgitates. The things you find in there are pretty awesome, and they tell us a lot about an owl’s life. So, can the kids come? Please??? We promise we won’t make you look at anything yucky!
