(503 posts)1. Nice pair of Turkey Vultures.
Vultures are smart birds that are a refuse removal service for nature.

Kept trying to fly off in front of my car; sorry couldn't get pics of great wing-span.

Sometimes they roost at the top of the water tower in my neighborhood and spread their wings out to dry
Dale in Laurel MD
(751 posts)4. They arrived at my house on the 16th this year.
I usually expect them within a day or two of the 3rd (easy to remember -- it was my high school sweetheart's birthday).

(136,043 posts)5. Have seen them flying above my house
(Calvert County,) but not on the road until today, and road CLEAN, so wondering what they'd found.
There used to be a fence beside where they were today, but it was removed so no more good fence views.
