Royal Owl's Borra (Bubo bubo) ... sent on January 30, 2018 (23:09) by Alfredo64. 7 comments, 1116 views.

, 1/8 f/16.0, ISO 200, tripod. Parco delle Orobie Bergamasche, Italy.

La borra, lunga circa 7 cm., è stata rinvenuta sotto uno dei posatoi abituali del gufo. Come sapete, le borre sono formate dall'accumulo di parti di prede non digerite, che poi il soggetto elimina rigurgitandole. Dall'esame delle stesse si può risalire alla dieta dell'uccello, dopo aver esaminato e identificato la provenienza del loro contenuto, costituito soprattutto da peli e ossa. In questo caso si tratta di residui di Rattus norvegicus, il comune Topo di fogna o Surmolotto. Sulla destra si può riconoscere una delle mandibole inferiori con il relativo incisivo.

The photo and the caption are very informative. Perhaps if I had put something in common near it, like the classic coin, we would have understood its dimensions better. Compliments

Thank you!
Yes Marco, you're right, I thought about it (usually you do it ....) but I did not want to, how to say, ruin the photo. Then I chose to indicate the measure in the caption, just 7 cm.!

High-profile educational image. It will not be a charm but very interesting as you have explained it perfectly in the caption. I too move the observation of Marco Cirillo, a comparison object would be a useful layer.
bye gios ;-)
