Turkey Vultures

The tall Arizona cypress trees on our property have become the roosting trees for a colony of turkey vultures (Cathartes aura).
We now seem to have about 40 of these birds and last year the number was about 25.
The first four pictures are probably the best and I have included 19 additional ones as a stock file.

Hi Cam;y:
What a wonderful series on these birds - you have caught them in some great poses. I especially like the first four and number 17. Having never seen one before, I know have a good idea of what they look like and a bit about how they live.

Thank you.

Ted
