Great Horned Owl Pellet Full of Bones The pellet had gotten mushy from the rain and was spread out, but was FULL of bones and was very impressive! <br />

Owls eat small rodents, birds, and insects. But, they cannot digest the fur, bones, teeth, feathers, and exoskeletons from their prey. So, these parts are formed into a tight pellet inside the owl, who later spits the pellet out.
