Tuesday October 7, 2008. 8 AM (give or take a few minutes).
Driving south on 32nd Ave NW (top of the bluff above Shillshole Bay), from Crown Hill down to Ballard at about 30 mph, two Turkey Vultures were keeping pace, heading south, about 100 feet up. It was windy (from the south) and mostly clear (with distant clouds to the north and south). Eventually, approximately above Ray's Boathouse, they peeled off towards the bluff of Discovery Park, presumably to keep using the updraft along the bluffs. I lost sight of them behind houses.
