Field Notes

Description:

The neighbors has just butchered some cattle the day prior and the vultures were attracted to the blood

Notes:

Prior to getting the photos, movement caught my eye. A large flock of turkeys chased the vulture off their prize. It was about 30 minutes later when the turkeys moved on and the vultures moved in
