Turkey vulture in flight

What a brilliant photo Elke........well done you................

I was lucky - unless the auto focus camera finds the target you're after, all you get is a blur when something moves this fast... But thanks anyway!!

Wouldnt want to be lying on the lounger sunbathing with these about. lol

Great picture Elke.
Just pick up your glass often Mageth. That way tey'll know you're alive and won't bother you. I think.

I'm not going to try it, Toto - have you seen the beak on these things?? Two of them out there got pretty annoyed when I went out on the deck to try and get better photos - and they were 50 yds away... Thought I'd get dive bombed. But you're right - they are only interested in dead stuff - carrion, the older the better it seems by the age of the raccoon carcass here.

Im getting on a bit but hopefully I dont look like a dead raccoon yet! lol

wonderful picture Elke...
lol Mageth!!
