I found this on farmland on a bridalway in-between crops of barley. There are small wooded areas nearby where buzzards are often seen. There are also hedgerows close by. Crows are often seen on the mown grass bridalway. I thought it was an owl pellet but got confused with the husks you can make out the beetle wing cases. The poo thing was firm so I think it was quite fresh.   |

This could indeed be a regurgitated pellet from a crow or rook, depending on size. thats my guess anyway.

Hi Kayleigh - I think I saw a little owl pellet posted recently that may have looked like that - I'll have a look. DJ |

Here it is: owl pellet? - Wild About Britain Pics
I think it's similar. Lucky you if they are in your area - I'd love to see one - I haven't in a long while

Yes - that's it! I haven't learnt how to insert the image rather than the link. Well done!  Yes - great minds think alike (but fools seldom differ  ). |

I`d say more likely a pellet from one of the Crow species,looks very similar to a Rook pellet in one of my books.
