Birds of Prey at Hillel

    As part of our partnership with Aullwood Audubon Nature Center and Farm, Tom Hissong came to Hillel to present Birds of Prey; it was an interactive look into the predator prey relationship of birds that started with a real life meeting of a Kestrel and concluded with the dissection of owl pellets! The kids were so engaged. The level of thought put into their questions was impressive to say the least. It was refreshing to see their curiosity take over any reluctances as they peeled the pellets right open and start to pull apart the fur and bones and match them to the bone sorting chart. They were prodigious little naturalists.
