Was it you or Jason carving your initials in the railing under Jason's hand?

In other news. Awesome macro photography made by smashing up disposable cameras and taping the parts to other cameras:

the afore mentioned photography would be perfect for taking pictures or excavated owls turds.
 
dude, that's not a turd. it's something the owl coughs up. no cloacal contact involved.
 
You'll probably think I'm joking (poorly and nonsensically), but my job coincidentally necessitated me purchasing an order of 75 owl pellets from Carolina Biological Supply Company just this morning.

I was once able to completely reconstruct an entire mole skull and about 85% of its body from one pellet. Which was exciting at the time.
 
This is old news, Rachel. I blogged about this very owl pellet a long time ago. Yawn....;-)
 
cfc, did you take those photos? they're very cool.

mike, what do you do for a living? I thought you were an actor!

kristin, why didn't you point out that we were in galveston not corpus christi instead of getting all rude? kara was here visiting, so I got lazy.
 
if i ever see that owl, i'm going to punch him right in his rodent-eating face! i'll do it - you know i will.
 
Owl punching = next great Olympic sport. Sure beats synchro swimming.
