They'll also chow down on a calf who was born dead as well (obviously..since they eat dead things, LOL). So I can see why they'd come running (flying? ) to see calves born. Because they may end up with a feast Hopefully not, since I love little cows , but things like that happen all the time.

Big guy is released


We released the big fellow on Saturday. He waved goodbye and was last seen soaring high in the sky with 7 new buddies.

NAB :-)


Such a handsome fellow those Vulture babes are going to swoon with him around.

I like Turkey Vultures. They fly over and around our house all the time. They are the 'clean up crew' and very good at disposing of all the road kill.
Nice job, Nab, and Thanks For Sharing!
