Thank you folks for all the responses. It certainly helps confirm my

FW: [cayugabirds-l] Turkey Vultures

[Donna Lee Scott]

I have seen 2 or 3 turkey vultures each time I drive from northwest Lansing 
towards the mall or Ithaca in the past weeks.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Turkey Vultures

Has anyone seen turkey vultures around? I was driving the back road from Geneva 
to Waterloo this morning (River Road) and in the distance saw what appeared to 
be a kettle of 8 very large, dark  birds behaving like vultures in a 
kettle.slow, circular motion. I had no binocs to confirm. Just before 
seeing this I was alerted to a dark bird flying across a farm field we with a 
distinct dihedral and am certain it wasn't a harrier. I pulled over to look and 
the bird was nowhere to be found. That's when I caught site of the "kettle" in 
the distance of birds too large to be crows.
