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 didn't get a picture of the hitchhiker. 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!

No, No, Stevie. WE eat TURKEYS! NOT Turkey Vultures. TV's look and smell WORSE than their prey! And to my knowledge, no one HAS or would EVER taste of a Turkey Vulture.

A multi-purpose hat that can double as a doily on your coffee table! Or maybe a Tennessee Titans hat. I can now get American football on TV, so am keeping an eye out for the Titans. What's your team there, dodge?
