As far as
I know, no turkey vulture
has ever landed in my yard, but it is not rare to see them soaring
over. During migrations they are often seen traveling in
groups. More and more of their wintering grounds are being built
over. This picture clearly shows the white areas under the wings
and tail.
This view
shows the twisting of the
wing tip feathers for controlling flight. Turkey vultures are
also known as buzzards.
