Turkey Vulture #300351 Nov 18th, 2009 at 02:00 PM Joined: May 2005 Posts: 6,521 Nashville, TN Thornius The Bird Man Thornius The Bird Man Joined: May 2005 Posts: 6,521 Nashville, TN I don't know WHY they call this bird a Turkey Vulture. Two of these were feeding on the bloated body of a dead hitchhiker on the side of the road today, and I managed to get a few pictures of them between gagging and retching from the scent.

I barely got pics of the vultures between spells of gagging and retching from the smell! I guess everybody REALLY wants to see pictures of the body, but I AIN'T gonna take it!
