Powerful Owl feeding frequency

["Anthony Overs" <>]

Hi folks

 

Leo's information is very important. Thanks Leo.

 

I ran into Jerry Olsen at the owl roost this afternoon. He was concerned that there is little in the way of whitewash or pellets in the vicinity and thinks that the bird may not have eaten since Sunday morning. Also of concern is the greenish colour of some of the droppings which may indicate that the owl is not well.

 

Like Paul Taylor I was puzzled by the lack of leftovers in the feet, particularly after seeing the bird for four days. However, Jerry reckons it could eat a couple of Sugar Gliders a night and not keep anything over.
