Great detail. I think buzzards are very fascinating.

Good shot. We have these and black vultures locally. They can really spook you taking off in front of the car because the are so large. Very nice.

For some reason the picture is gone---for now. I will say I bet it is wonderful. I will return when it flies back into view. LOL MB

I see why they call it a turkey VULTURE! It would be kinda scary to meet up with. Great catch!

A face to love - NOT! :)
They are big birds and soaring in the sky quite beautiful.
This guy is perfect on the dead tree - nice shot.

Cor! Never seen anything like it! (cue for a song!) That is what blogging is all about I guess - new day, new dawn, new experiences!

I love turkey vultures! We have them all over the place here- I did a post about them a couple of weeks ago and referred to them as "Majestic Janitors". They clean up for us...

Lindy said...

Great capture! But then, I'm partial to those turkey buzzards. =D
