The Turkey Vultures

















As we were leaving Gatorland, I happen to look up, and saw all these turkey vultures up in the tree. They are one of the ugliest birds I have ever seen!

AMEN they are absolutely the ugliest things I've ever seen.....we were driving through the lovely mountains of VA years ago when one of those things landed on the road in front of us. Thank goodness there was no traffic behind us. Dang thing had a wing span nearly as wide as our car.

They rate right up there with those gaters in my book of ugly.
