Summary/Abstract: During the three tours of the Obredna pećina cave near Kladanj several bones were collected from a minimum of 26 animals. All bones belong to the Common noctule (Nyctalus noctula). The bones were the contents of pellets of the Tawny owl (Strix aluco) that is still active in that cave. Judging by color, the bones are exposed to the air for a long period of time and the cave is now just an old graveyard of the Common noctule.
