Vultures fly over our farm daily. They are continually looking for food, carrion.
Usually a single bird is seen circling high overhead; most notably perceived by Buddy first. I frequently see him running off, at full speed eyes gazing high in the sky, in chase mode.
Vultures are huge birds. Their size alone is quite scary; now, add the fiendish head - terrifying!

| one vulture... |
When I notice that their numbers increase from one to eight or more, I know there is a dead animal nearby.

| two vultures... |
 |
| three vultures! |
Once in while I observe them sunning, perched on a tree branch or a fence post. Their dark wings are completely outstretched; looking even more ominous.
I have to admit…vultures are not my favorite bird species. Even the bright red head (and I often mention how much I adore color) does not win me over.
