Birds of Prey

The vultures are very active around Tedderhaven right now, soaring high and zooming close, letting me take their picture, and often circling back for re-takes. There is most likely a nest up the cove a bit, and both turkey and black vultures have been hanging out at the shoreline. These are all turkey vultures.

They really do look, from a distance, like a man hunched in an overcoat.

A small group gathered at the bottom of the steps and just kind of chillaxed for a while.

This one definitely needs a caption. I can’t quite make out what they’re saying–any help?

Their wings are so splendid and powerful. They are very large birds, bigger than ospreys and almost the size of eagles.
