I accompanied a couple of watchers this weekend to look for evidence of snowy owls that have come south from Canada. This was my first experience seeing lots of bones and several pellets. I have no idea what bones are what. I was told some were duck vertebrae, but there were large bones too. May have found a part of a skull, but not sure...So much to learn! ~Joyce Title: Re: A few Owl videos Ive put together lately. Post by: BIGFRANK on 07-Dec-09, 08:00:39 PM Thanks for the welcomes. As many of you know I was a member of your other board,and do alot of volunteer work with The Canadian Peregrine Foundation,from helping display our educational birds at various shows,fledge watches and even a hack/release. In 2004 I started a fall migration Raptor Watch. You can see the daily results,some great photos and a few videos of what we have seen the last few years at http://raptorwatch.blogspot.com/ . This season of special interest to rfalcon forum users,we had a record number of Peregrien Falcons pass our site. We saw 73 Peregrine Falcons.
Joyce and any one else who may have pellet content photos,I have access to a small vertabrates expert,who has previously done work with the Royal Ontario Museum,so if you have any photos of the pellet contents feel free to post or send them to me. A description of the size(lengths) or what kind of owl the pellets may be from. I hope I can be of help with reguards to any and all birds,particularily birds of prey. I have a ton of photos..birds and non at http://bigbirderfrank.winkflash.com/ Enjoy BIGFRANK Title: Re: A few Owl videos Ive put together lately.
