My opossum didn't make it across the road. (Poor Mr. Opossum) But in the circle of life, this meant dinner (and lunch and breakfast) for the turkey vultures.
One circled and circled all morning. He flew so close to the front window, that while watching, we even ducked thinking he was going to hit us inside!
One would land on the road next to the opossum, but the traffic wouldn't allow me to get a photo before another car would come and the bird would fly again.
Luckily, he perched on the phone pole at the bottom of the driveway.
Not a pretty bird. (you can even see the rain drops in the photo!)
The crows were not happy. When the turkey vulture would fly, he would take wide circles around the neighborhood. This was WAY too close to the family of crows living down by the Farmer's house. The whole family (the murder) would start pursuit.
What's a bird got to do to get a decent dead meal around here?
