Poo: By Any Other Name

I found this one, where 'someone' had burped it up while sitting on a hay bale scanning the field for the next victim. Which animal left it behind? Answers in the comments section please.

  1. Also would think it an owl pellet

    Thanks for taking the time to comment, welcome to the campfire

    My initial thoughts were an osprey as the pellet only contained very gritty particles, whereas I associate Owl pellets with yer actual chunks of bone. Total novice at this so i'd appreciate any further opinion

  3. Are you absolutely sure its a pellet and not some poo? Ospreys don't hawk up pellets. What does down goes all the way thru. IIRC

    Every day's a school day, my guess at an Osprey was because there were a few of them in the area

Please feel free to leave comments. I really enjoy hearing what readers think. The rules are the same as round my dinner table:

You're welcome to disagree, life would be way too boring if we all agreed with each other and we'd never learn anything.
I like to think that we're all grown up enough to argue every last point, right down to the bone, without bearing a grudge afterwards.



Come on in the waters lovely
