Small Mammal Skull and Bones (+PiP)

Small Mammal Skull and Bones (+PiP)
Some more from my granddaughter's bone collection. These bones are obtained from Owl pellets, which are the mass of undigested parts of it's food that it occasionally regurgitates.

These are the bones of small mammals.........probably mice, voles for something similar.

Owl pellets can be found near where they roost..........but most people (including my granddaughter) purchase them online. They then just need cleaning etc. Fascinating stuff..!!

There's another image of these bones in the PiP together with the Gull's skull from my previous images.

Ha, ha...........my granddaughters friends think it's all a bit odd, but it makes her happy and she enjoys researching stuff too. Sometimes, she sets a bone in acrylic and makes jewellery from it.
