Hanging Around Like Vultures
posted by: Timm in Birds, Bugs on Aug 1st, 2010 |

Dozens of turkey vultures congregated in the trees along the country road near our house to feast on a roadkill deer.

Vultures

 

The wingspan of these birds is quite impressive — perhaps 4-5 feet wide.

 

 

Pretty fair-weather clouds puffed up behind the vultures.

 

 

Oh dear.

 

 

First come the flies, then come the maggots.

  1. The vultures are awesome to watch. The hung around the orchard in fall and spring because we had an abundance of bunnies, deer, racoons, etc..just waiting to be their dinner.
