Turkey Vulture – Mountainside Neighbors in Ladybug’s Hood

Print me , June 27, 2017, Ladybug Fun Outdoor Adventures

I walked outside Saturday afternoon and glanced up to see a giant Turkey Vulture sitting on the wall of our backyard! Apparently our yard has become a sanctuary for large birds of prey.

We still get nightly visits from our Great Horned Owl friends (aka, Athena and Apollo), but this guy came to say hello in the middle of a 115 degree afternoon. Since the Turkey Vulture is one of the few birds to locate food using its sense of smell, it makes me a little nervous for our resident squirrel population.
