On Sunday, March 19th I observed 60-70 kettling Turkey Vultures while biking in NW Rochester. Ten minutes later I got a call from a friend who said there were about 60 Turkey Vultures circling above his house and roosting in a cottonwood tree in his backyard a mile from where I spotted them. Unfortunately a neighbor scared them away afraid they would fly off with his dog.
I thought it make make a good story for my Nature Nut column next week, and I got a good pic of the roosting birds, but could use one of a TV in flight showing its characteristic V-shaped wings. If anyone has one of fairly high resolution, please send and I will let you know if I submit it to my Editors. Thanks to those who send a pic in advance.
