Lot of vultures around here; both the turkey vulture and the common vulture

I love watching them sail on the updrafts and think they are quite attractive birds

Vultures are cool

Seagulls are bad enough-- I cannot imagine having to put up with buzzard droppings. Reckon I'd go berserko and whip out my trusty Remington.

We have turkey buzzards here in Georgia, and the first time I ever saw them close-up was at about the age of four... a pair were standing on the beach, and in my childish exuberance, I ran right up to them...

Good God, they were taller than I was!

Luckily, Mr. & Mrs. Buzzard was as startled as I was, and took off, cawing and flapping mightily... but I've never forgotten how big they seemed to a small child.

Re: Some 150 buzzards roosted for about six weeks near St. Peter's Cemetery

Those are just DemocRATs waiting for Howard Dean's Mississippi campaign on God, gays and guns...

It's really quite funny that this is a plague to some people, but for our little town of Hinckley, we have an entire weekend devoted to having buzzards return!
