Owls

[lardy]

Please - I'm on the scrounge :D

My class (8 and 9 year olds) are doing an owl study next week - I thought they would like to see some cracking photos of owls, owls in flight, close up details of owl parts i.e claws, beaks, feathers, eyes, etc - and that's where you lot come in :wave:

I could trawl the net and find some mediocre pictures but I know yours will be much better (that's me creeping btw). I would only use your photos in the classroom for the children to examine and on a hall display as a comparison to the children's artwork.

So, if you have any owl photos that I could use, I (and 31 children) would be extremely grateful.

Thanks in advance :banana:

Mrgubby and dunedin - thank you both - great pics, will use them too if that's OK.

Mrgubby - the more the merrier please :D

These are all going to look fantastic on the interactive board - might do them an owl slideshow. :woot:

We've got a man bringing in some Barn Owls on Thursday and I've ordered some Owl pellets for them to take apart and try to identify what the owl has eaten in science. :nuts:

Can you tell I'm excited? :clap:

The children will all be wearing gloves when handling the pellets :lol: - however, I'll bet that the owl man will fill them in on all aspects of owl 'plop and puke' :eek:
