There should be lots more opportunities to video these "not-so-eye-catching
birds" around the Bridgetown-Round Hill area. We have a lot of them,
regularly seen soaring over the hwy 201. Some of them apparently lined up
to gain access to our local meat shop last winter. (They were shooed away.)
For reasons that are unclear to me, they seem to be more readily seen than
eagles down this way, though they are presumably going after similar diets.
(We have some eagles, too, but nowhere near the numbers found in Kings
County.) I wonder if the high eagle numbers on the Kings County end of the
valley sort of keep the vultures out of there, so they've decided to gather
down this way. Alternate theories welcome.
I've grown used to seeing them and their 'tippy, soaring flight' overhead as
I travel the 201. (They're more 'cute' from a distance, than up close!)
Donna Crossland- Keep taking the videos, Paul!

Hi all,
At last was able to get some video of Turkey Vultures. Thank you Gayle!
Have often seen them soaring high above the highway, but never saw them
close up. Quite an impressive bird.
I'm not too happy with the quality but thought there might be of some
interest.
Paul.
