Turkey Vultures are baaack

I know this sounds strange, but I love to see Turkey Vultures soaring through the sky.  I think they are beautiful, with their large wing span, floating, dipping, and circling on air currents.  And they do provide an environmental service by consuming dead things that other birds would not touch.  Their digestive system takes care of toxic stuff.  And see for yourself.. arent their wings, outstretched wonderful?  I caught these turkey vultures circling over Lakeport end of Opeche Lake during the late afternoon, and with the late afternoon soft, glowing, light enhancing the wings.
