Journal Title: Jaunųjų mokslininkų darbai - Year 2012, Vol 36, Issue 3
Abstract
Three bird houses were put up in Šilutė region. A tawny owl was hatching in one of them. The litter from this bird house and 66 pellets from the daytime spending places were collected. The average length of the pellets was 3.9±0.93 cm and the weight was 2.4 ± 0.88 g. The average amount of prey in one pellet was 2.1 ± 0.82 units (max. 4). 141 individuals were identified in the pellets. 166 individuals which belonged to 11 species of small mammals were identified from all nutrition remains.
