Turkey Vultures

[king2005]

Turkey Vultures live ontop of the Samsung Building & LOVE to prech on out 9th & 10th floor window ledges, not to mention fly around the building. People are SOOOO scared of them. When I first heard about the birds, people were calling them giant killer birds!! :rolleyes: I had no idea what they were (they weren't here at the time) & I said ya its prob a Turkey Vulture, no biggy. Well I was right They are Turkey Vultures & they are scareing the hell out of people hehehe

Its a harmless bird, silly people

We had some around our neighborhood last summer, I live right next to a national park, and I thought it was really cool to see them!

They don't scare me... they're scavengers and like carrion, so they can have my body once I'm done with it:)

My dad always called them turkey buzzards, and I never realized they weren't turkeys until like... 3 years ago.

Nope, never seen them here before. But they do look kinda turkeyish. I see alotta ravens and pigions here.

we don't have mant Ravens, but we have TOO many Crows heheh

Turkey Vultures don't only eat dead animals, they LOVE veggie gardens, esp Tomatoes! A friend had to tie her working dogs beside the garden as the darn vultures were eating everything!
