Hi Diann and Tweeters:

Don't know where this falls in the category of "interesting" but yesterday
morning I observed two (a pair ?) of Turkey Vultures in the fields off
Wenzel Slough Road in the Brady Loop. One took to air several times and
came back down while the other sunned him/herself on a fencepost, and what
sun it was! Felt like doing the same myself. I might describe their
behavior as languid as they periodically explored the shallow indentation
along the plowed fence line. Meanwhile, some Blackbellied Plovers (8+)
busily strutted across the plowed field away from the fenceline.
