--Apple-Mail-565-944135377 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed; delsp=yes Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hello, all, Many thanks to those who kept us updated about the continuing presence of snowy owls at Lawrencetown Beach. We went there with my relatives visiting from Philadelphia, and my sister had spotted a prominent snowy before we were even out of the car. He/she gave us all a long and close viewing on the inland side of the road opposite the parking lot. Later, we saw at a greater distance over the inland waters a rough- legged hawk, which I understand at times hunts with a second rough- legged over the bluff at Lawrencetown Beach. Walking the edge of the bluff, we found numerous elongated pellets, all made of the same near-black short fur full of small bones including rodent skulls and jaws. Our question: is there a way to distinguish between snowy and rough- legged pellets of the same prey? Given the location on the bluff, does that indicate they are more likely rough-legged pellets? Cheers, Nancy Nancy Roberts Design Celebrating 22 years of making you look GOOD Dartmouth, NS B2Y 2X6 902 461-9488 --Apple-Mail-565-944135377 Content-Type: text/html; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html><body style=3D"word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; = -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Hello, = all,<div><br></div><div>Many thanks to those who kept us updated about = the continuing presence of snowy owls at Lawrencetown Beach.
