Owl CSI

Site 2

An owl on mammal crime. The mammal looked to be a rabbit. The owl, a larger owl judging by the size of the pellet, about the size of a man’s thumb. Could it be the barred owl, that had been heard once in the fall and seen once in early winter. Or perhaps a great horned owl that have also been heard in the area, but not nearly as recently. Most likely an unsolvable case. The evidence did look a bit old, but probably with-in a month’s time frame.

pellet upper left, some droppings, and fur mainly towards the lower right part of the image, may be some rabbit scat?
