A face only a mother... well may not even. Mr. roadkill himself. We have a few of these that like to sit out in the back field watching the goats and cows. The animals are all alive and well though, so I am not sure why the vultures hang out there.
I have only seen a vulture in Go Diego Go (a cartoon show) hehehehe... it doesn't exist here in the Philippines. thanks for dropping by my site! have a wonderful Wednesday!
wow, what a foreboding looking creature. But great captures!

Gotta wonder what it's after >>. Great shot. Scavengers do keep our roads clean of carcasses, however creepy they may appear.

They may not be handsome birds, but they sure can fly.

Vulture? Buzzard? This is in your yard? Wow. You don't often see those birds of prey so up-close-and-personal.

Don't you just love how they fly away once you get the camera in focus! Dang, not like we can catch them or anything!
Nice shots!
