FUN FACT #1
Did you know that vultures are relatively social birds, often feeding, roosting and flying together. A
group of vultures is called a committee, a venue or a volt. When
in flight a group is called a kettle and I saved the best for last. When
feeding at a carcass the group of vultures is referred to as a wake.
As of 9:07 this morning there is still one turkey vulture egg in the nest. Photos are much the same, flying in, flying out and occasionally a shot of them turning the egg. Saturday, June 3 marks 30 days and possible hatching could occur anywhere between 34-41 days according to my research. I'm assuming the blessed event will happen while I am in Delaware for Lily's ballet recital. This might be for the best and I will be sure to put a 32 GB card in before I go so we can see what happens inside the vulture lair.

| I was worried after the one egg disappeared. Perhaps the critter that took it didn't like how it tasted! |
 |
| Seems very curious about the camera....or he just wanted his picture taken. |
 |
| In my notes I refer to this as egg turning. |
 |
| I get very few shots of both, Amelia & Orville. I still cannot distinguish one from the other. |
