i'm partial to the vultures because they're forgiving as you inch closer to them. i got within 5 to 10 ft of one once. it was a great feeling to stand so close to a wild bird. i may share the video my daughter took of me closing in on one at my fb page. i believe these are even better shots than mine were. have a great day.
Oh I love the humor of that last shot!! A sign warning NOT to approach alligators, and a vulture sitting on top of it just waiting for the idiot who decides to disobey the sign? Great!
Looks like it knew there was someone taking a picture of him. Look at the shots, he's not even looking! Haha!
ReplyDeleteWhat great shots!!!! I only recently started stopping by your blog, but I must tell you that you have awesome WW posts! :)
ReplyDeleteThese are great photos. Happy WW!
ReplyDeleteThe face just doesn't go with the rest of him somehow. It's almost as if he's wearing a mask.

ReplyDeletelove these shots--we have large groups migrating through right now. they have red heads.
ReplyDeleteHe's one scary dude. Great captures, Lisa.
ReplyDeleteA face only a mother could love... Great portraits of a bird that doesn't get much photo attention!
ReplyDeleteHe is probably spying the alligator, wondering if he is tougher or just uglier....
ReplyDeleteGreat shot!!
He scares me. :-)
He is so black and big :)))
ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFUL !!

ReplyDeleteLooks placid, but what's he really thinking?
ReplyDeleteHe really does look like an Undertaker dressed all in black.
ReplyDeleteWonderful capture! That's a little too close for comfort when I look at its beak!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like he's trying to tell you something!
