Spotted a couple of Turkey Vultures "cleaning up" a dead Virginia Opossum this morning while walking the dogs. Naturally, they were skittish and when I went back with my camera there were too many people passing by for them to come down and continue.



Yesterday's photo:

Canon EOS R5
1/1250s f/10.0 at 700.0mm iso3200 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

They are beautiful in their own way. They are so prehistoric looking. V

Definitely giving you the eye. Vultures, great cleaner-uppers.

Great shot of this large vulture, doing a great service by cleaning up the unfortunate roadkill. V

Not a beautiful raptor - but - none-the-less, a valuable member of our 'clean up' workers!

You still got a great shot of the vulture looking down on what it was missing.
