The first pass over the yard. I wasn't sure he was going to double back, but he did. |
This time I was ready and got some halfway decent photos. |
I kept the lens pointed at him as he continued to pull away. |
I reckon he was looking for anything edible. |
And this was the last image I captured as he vanished behind the rooftops. |
Those are hard shots to capture. You did very well. I'm impressed.
ReplyDeleteThey look like large birds. (We don't have vultures here.)
They're huge birds. Enormous.
ReplyDeleteWhat fills in for scavenger birds in Australia?
Ravens and crows. Carrion is also a major diet item of our largest raptor, the Wedge-tailed Eagle.
ReplyDeleteRavens and crows. We have those, although ravens are a threatened species in some areas. Eagles we have, too. And Bald eagles are notorious scavengers, but I don't think it's their first choice of menu items.
