Title: Turkey Vultures
Post by: Napper on October 10, 2009, 03:02:54 PM

Hey Folks

Just as we were getting into our car (Travelling to Niagara today) a large group of Turkey vultures

soared over our house travelling West. They paused and regathered directly over the house, turning tight circles around each other.

I lost count at 40 birds.

I snapped a few images I'll linkem later..

When we arrived in Port Colborne I made a quik trip over to Cement rd..

found a few GB Herons, A Kingfisher, lots of Redwing Blackbirds at the pond.
The bay was virtually empty, a few gulls and one great Egret.

A little addition here

the egret was just around the corner from where this vid was taken of the "Mill illusion".  Yeah the optical illusion works.. It shrinks just like the vid shows
I grew up here.. Never noticed until YOUTUBE SHOWED IT..
