Revised: May 05, 2006 Welcome to the KidWings website!

This site was designed to teach young and old about the wonders of birds. The most exciting part of the site is the Virtual Owl Pellet Dissection. Many interactive activities await you. Click on a link from the left side of the screen to get started. Look what's new! NEW Beta Version: Virtual Owl Pellet Dissection v.4
This newest version is being released early with the hope of receiving your input before it is finalized. Here are the major changes:
  • When students complete the owl pellet dissection, a certificate appears which they can type their name in and print off
  • Bones are dropped onto the rodent skeleton with the option of having the bone labels on or off (this can be changed during the dissection, too).
  • Interesting avian facts appear with every correctly placed bone (only a few appear now, many more with finalized version)
  • Progress bar shows how many bones need to be placed correctly
  • When fur is clicked it automatically moves to a corner of the screen and can't be moved again. This makes it easier for the user.

Information on the Barn Owl and how to build a nestbox from a 55 gallon plastic barrel.
http://www.rain.org/~sals/barnowl.html
The Barn Owl (Tyto alba)
The Barn Owl has nearly world-wide distribution,being absent from only the high Latitudes. It has been introduced into some Pacific islands for rat control and is provided nest boxes in Malaysian palm nut groves for the same purpose. While the barn owl is found all over the US, its numbers are particularly high in California and the Southwest. Farmers and ranchers are increasingly attracted to the barn owl's ability to control rodents better than traps,poison,or cats and at no cost. Barn owls in favorable habitats produce large broods once or twice a year. Each young owl as it nears maturity will eat the equivalent of a dozen mice per night if such prey is available. Adult barn owls kill and consume the equivalent of one large rat or gopher per night. The Owl Rehabilitation Research Foundation,Ontario,Canada, reports that barn owls consume twice as much food for their weight as other owls. The number of barn owls in an area is limited by both prey base and suitable nesting sites. In the West,barn owls not only nest in natural trees cavities and buildings, they also nest in cavities in cliffs and cut banks,stacked hay bales,and in palm trees. Use of these sites often leads to nesting failure such as when bales are shifted or the young outgrows the nest at the base of palm fronds. This brochure offers several nest box designs that can be made from off the shelf materials. In addition, nest box designs that can be made from off the shelf materials. In addition, nest box designs for boxes made from plywood and lumber can be found in a companion brochure, Using Barn Owls for Rodent Control (209-369-8578) and in several other publications: Woodworking for Wildlife, Minnesota Dept. of Natural Resources World Aug 1991.

When the great horned owls finish their nesting activities this spring, the camera will switch to barn owls that are just beginning to nest. Because these birds are most active at night, we use an infrared camera which captures images under low-light conditions and provides them in black and white. Local time, Mountain Standard (MST), is used for these images.

    May 21 - Thanks to Dale P. for the wonderful work! May 17 - All three owlets are alive, well, and perched together high-up in the same hackberry tree that they were occupying yesterday night. May 16 From these photos, I can only guess about the identities of the owlets, by the way, but if you want to assign identities to them, those guesses are plausible. Anyway, now that the owlets are somewhat mobile, the adults are back to being very relaxed about my presence. It seems that knowing that the owlets won't be haplessly plummeting to the ground where nasty critters, such as myself, can get hold of them is all the peace of mind that they need. My own peace of mind is greatly enhanced for much the same reason. Of course, any bird of prey has a very difficult first year, but these owlets have now cleared all of the toughest hurdles they'll face in their first few months of life, so their odds of survival, at least in the short term, are now very good and getting better every day.
