TURKEY VULTURE
Cathartes aura
The last of this year's Turkey Vultures seem to have migrated south and I just discovered that I had not used this photo in a blogspot yet...so here it is.   I was at the top of a steep roadside embankment  and the vulture was taking off in a valley below.   That wingspan, by the way, is 6' or 183 centimetres.
Please comment if you wish.
