Description

At first I thought I had another hawk but it turns out to be a turkey vulture. This was shot against a bright sky so its a little dark, but I thought it was worth the upload :)

Nice silhouetting in this shot of the avian and environs against the bright sky.

Great capture! They do look a lot like the wild turky here in Florida. With very different eating habits I'm sure. Glad to see you posting again! :)

I don't think I'd like to meet up with that sharp looking beak, he looks serious. Great shot.

Hey you where you been? Glad to see you back. I have certainly missed your wonderful pictures. When I first moved to the island I live on, there were a bunch of these creepy vultures sitting on the lights of the bridge, as I drove on to the island. I didn't really like the welcoming committee. Nice to see you back.
