These birds are amazing. They dropped by one day and we fed them. The next day they returned with 2 more. We have learned they form very close family groups; they share among that group. They are very patient and will sit and wait hours until we come out to feed them. They are cautious but not very frightened of humans. They have a very keen sight…that is how they find their food…not smell as you might think. Their courtship ritual is performed in flight. Seeing them up close, I realize they are really pretty and not at all what you think when you think of vultures. The spread wings are a way of warming themselves. I think the wings are especially pretty.
I forgot to say I used Carole’s photo mask script.
