World Bird Wednesday
We have lots of Turkey Vultures in our area, and it is so amazing how these big birds can soar for the longest time on the air currents without ever flapping their wings. They are also very protective of their lunch, and will many times challenge you in your vehicle if you get too close.

As ugly as they are...I guess they are a good thing...something has to clean up all the road kill!
I am always amazed at the beauty of these birds in flight.I can't say the same about their homely faces,but they are still God's creation.
Very nice captures of the Turkey Vulture! A face only a mother could love.
i love these guys!
Great captures Becky. They look huge!
Must be quite a sight to see them gliding in the sky.
A lovely bird to see in the wild..
We don't have them over here in the UK.
We have turkey vultures too - just don't see them too often and never close enough for my camera.
It looks quite regal on its perch there. They may be ugly by a conventional definition, but I do find them to be interesting birds!
Gtreat shots of my favorite "villain!" Hey, I'm doing a little Sam Clemens reading right at the moment and your header photo really tickeled me! Fantastic!
Great shots! I love to see these birds in flight!
