I wondered what was on his wing - I thought a year or so ago I saw an article about a vulture study - they have a cam set up on a scale and when they come to eat they can weigh and observe .... hmmmm edit I know our first trip - every time we saw one of the vultures we were sure it was an eagle - and newbie! ![]() edit edit (can you do that?) check this out http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/greenli...ey_vulture.html |

Deb, I know they have a feeding station for the California Condors in the Ventana Wilderness, Big Sur. Our Condors are fancy pants vultures.

Deb, that's so funny. My cockatiels hear the birds on the PH cam and go crazy, they love it. The ironic thing is I have a few of the audubon birds, that have real bird calls, one an eagle (of course), a California quail, and a meadowlark. They hiss at everything except the eagle, they make cute little noises when they hear the eagle. Too dang cute! I bet your little parakeets crack you up! They're so cute, I had them when I was kid and just loved them. |
