Thank you MFC. I confess to using the clone tool to remove one item, mostly because it might have been a bit too gruesome for some. Directly below the wingtip of the second flying vulture from the left, hanging upside-down from the thick horizontal branch, was a dead vulture still gripping the branch. It appears that was what the others were headed in for...mealtime! I decided to keep it a little more G-rated and cloned the dead vulture out of the shot for this challenge.

Justin, I like how these vultures/buzzards are "heading home" to roost in the trees. I esp like how the one has its "gear" down just before landing. I think the crop is effective too...nice catch of the moment. MFC
