The peregrine found me and my friend today and gave us a very, very quick look at him as he flashed past.
His patterns were stark against the very grey sky.

 

The 2-year-old bald eagle on the left had been eating on the dead fish. 
Strolled down to get a drink at the water’s edge.
The turkey vulture tried to steal a bite of the fish …..

JL Neighborhood: Here is 3 minutes of chuckles! I do appreciate vultures. Both for their clean-up activities and their sense of timing that often leads to my laughter. This flock of black vultures decided that my friends and I were nothing scary and began to parade past us by land and by air. At about 20 feet away I got to enjoy the air traffic control patterns.  Oh, and the video is in slo mo and was made on my iPhone. Do keep an eye to the right … and, turn up the volume, please!
