It’s the funniest thing. A group of vultures has taken up residence on top of BP’s building and won’t go away. They crap all over the place and circle the building all day long.

As to how to get rid of them, there is a secret that usually works and I have used it on the farm successfully.

Came to the edge of a cornfield in NJ and stopped short to watch three big vultures picking away at a woodchuck or something. Suddenly they all hopped about 10 feet away like prize-fighters to their corners. I thought I had spooked them.

Then down came this little hawk to take a bite, and then he flew back to the top of the telephone pole nearby where he had gone unnoticed by me. And the vultures moved back in. A minute later they all hopped back to their corners as the little guy came back in for more.

This continued until I got bored and left. It was really amazing to see those huge vultures (5 to 6 foot wing-span compared to the little hawk’s 15-inches ?) do their quick-step as soon as the hawk lifted his wings to glide down. He barely gave them a look either.
