Andrew, and all,

Does the Museum add these pellets (dissected or otherwise) to the
collections? There was a suggestion to send them to me (your friendly
neighbourhood owl biologist), and if people want to do that, that's fine. I
can ID many prey items to species, others to genus or broader. However, I
don't want to interrupt the flow of data into a project, for example, so
I'm content with them going to the Museum.

Randy
