Owl pellet dissection marathon

15/7/2024

 
On the 10th of August we have an owl dissection marathon between 10 and 1 pm at the Hinton Hall.

This is a joint event between Young Nature Watch (Tisbury and District Natural History Society) and the Wiltshire Mammal Group and is a suitable activity for all ages and levels of experience. We will provide all equipment and necessary guidance for those who need it.

The aim will be to dissect as many pellets as possible, to obtain information about the prey items of barn owls in the local area and assist the Mammal Society in finding out the spread the Greater White-Toothed Shrew, a species of invasive shrew that has been recently found in Eastern England for the first time.

No bookings required, just drop by at any time and stay as long as you feel like! This is a free activity for children, members of our society and the Wiltshire Mammal Group, a small fee of £2 for non-members is welcome!

If you would like to have more information, please get in touch!
