Today we went to learn about birds of prey at one of the local nature centers with our new home-school group called TORCH. The older kids, Hannah included, got to dissect an owl pellet which, in case you didn't know, is basically owl puke. The point was to see what kind of prey the owl was eating by looking at the parts of the prey that could not be digested. Super gross, but cool none the less. Hannah even got to bring home some of the little bones and teeth that she found in her pellet. The boys were entirely more knowledgeable and pumped about e whole subject of birds of prey than the girls, but Hannah's favorite part was the dissecting so I guess it wasn't too gross to her.

We met lots of other five year old children. Yea!
