It's supposed to be a turkey vulture baby but then again how would I know the difference?

D.I.E.D.
From my scant memory banks I seem to recall that buzzards have very wide range. 7 mile radius? Add each neighbor and his neighbor and you have a batch of buzzards, then they might migrate to Sgt 911's place to have kids before returning to your digs to dine.
ewest is right on, as usual, take an egg, produce an egg., here and I am guessing else where if food is abundant, lots of eggs, if scarce few if any.
I remember being in Kernville one time when there were 1000s of hawks, they were on their way to somewhere and were just resting up or fueling up?

The cutest/ugliest thing I have ever seen is baby roadrunners.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

chris? your pets? i see what you mean Sgt...man they are FUGLY.....future carcass cleaning machines.
i cant wait to show that pic to DWIED.
i'm still kind of surprised i never see the babies. they roost around here very often. its common to drive out in the morning and see them sitting on the fence posts waiting for the sun to come up. i need to grab a pic of that. when the sun hits them, they spread their wings to soak it in.
GSF are people too!

Chris's photo is really cool. The head looks just like an aduts. The head doesnt grow much either.
A new use for buzzards I found out last year. No more waiting for large red sliders(death by drowning) to float to shore, or going out and netting floating ones. When they get to shore, the buzzards pick them very clean.
