What you need to know
“What did the owl eat? ” becomes an evidence question rather than a guessing game. During Uilen CSI, children receive tweezers, a magnifying glass and an identification card, then carefully separate an owl pellet to find tiny bones, hair and feathers. The material can look unusual, but it makes a food chain tangible. Teeth may point toward a vole, while delicate bones show that a nocturnal hunt leaves readable traces. The session runs at Buitencentrum Drents-Friese Wold on 22 August from 13:30 to 14:30 and costs €5; children must attend with an adult. Hokimi sees it as a good match for curious children who can focus at a table for an hour. A child uncomfortable with animal remains can observe first and should not be pressured to dismantle an entire pellet.
