Turkey Vultures

[Spike188]

Taking a day of forced rest and doing it while setting at the bay windows has its perks. We see them catching thermals over head regularly. Seeing preflight warmup is a first.

3 off these birds perched on our shed before catching thermals this afternoon. They may have decided to use our long neglected tree house as a roost.

Is there a dead Deere nearby?

We have tons of them around here. They ride the thermals in big circles over our place all the time.

When a bunch of them come over I always feel like I need to jump up and dance a jig so they know I’m not on the menu!

I see them in my location, usually feeding on road kill. Harry

We have them in Northern Illinois as well, must thrive everywhere. Although only in the summer months, haven't seen any for awhile.
