  4. Hilke, Gary and Blair, thanks for this. At first glance, I didn't realize it was a Turkey Vulture, just something big and odd. The poor guy did a little dance up there before take off. Do you suppose the chimney was hot?

  5. You do the best color in your photos! You caught that moment when the vulture's landing gear is headed toward its "up and locked" position. Very nice.

  7. Is it me.... or is that tail going into "up" position to ....... "flip us the bird!?!?!?!" Love it! I've actually seen one of those as it was about to take off. They are HUGE! Thank you

  9. Robin I really like the way you showed the height and shadow of the chimney. It must be an extremely tall one because it makes the TV look small? Or is it the angle?
