Owl Pellet Dissection

Your kids are in for a hands-on learning experience at this nature-focused activity. During the Owl Pellet Dissection program, young naturalists will examine real owl pellets—the indigestible material that owls regurgitate—to uncover what these birds have eaten. It's a genuine way to explore food chains and owl biology firsthand, perfect for curious minds who enjoy getting a little messy while discovering how nature works. This hour-long session takes place at Grand Junction Plaza and is part of the summer programming in Westfield. It's ideal for elementary and middle-school-aged children who are interested in wildlife and science. Kids will have the chance to carefully take apart pellets and identify bones and other remains, which helps them understand predator-prey relationships in an interactive way. Bring your budding biologist along for a memorable summer morning.
