JCHE would like to invite you to come and enjoy another night with the Bug Man!
On Friday evening at 7:00
p.m., November 8th, at West Main Church of Christ, we will be hosting the Bug Man who will be doing an Owl Pellet Study. Participants get "hands-on" with real owl pellets...we get to play DETECTIVE with latex gloves, tweezers and magnifying glasses to find out what the owls have eaten. We will discuss owls in the environment and the part they play in the food-web cycle. It also includes HANDS-ON time with a taxidermied barn-owl and owl calls.
If you have never had the opportunity to dissect owl pellets, it is fascinating. Owl pellets are the oval-shaped pellets that owls "cough up" after they have eaten. The Bug Man will explain in more detail just what that entails. Don't miss this fun chance to do this great science project!
If you would like to attend, we ask that you let Joan Consiglio know so she can get a count for set-up and materials. Please contact her by Thursday, November 7th. Call her at 541-826-9405 and let her know how many in your family will be there. The cost if FREE for JCHE subscribers and $5.00 per family for non-subscribers. You may pay at the door. This will also be an opportunity to sign up that evening to be a subscriber which is $10.00 per 12 months and includes the bimonthly newsletter and discounts to events, among other things! If you have any questions, please call Joan or Therese at 541-826-3560
