Big Bird

I had my camera, but I didn't have time to switch to manual focus so I was only able to get these shots.

I don't know, but it was not a vulture, but it dived and killed what ever it's carrying. One second it wasn't there the next it was on the ground, less than 200 feet away.

The photos were only croped into a 640 pixel square, using Photo shop, Lense on the camera was the 70-300mm zoom zoomed out to 300mm.

Yup, even I recognize it as a turkey vulture. And I'm no bird nerd.

It has the head of a vulture in #2.
The cartoon "Patience my ass, I'm gonna kill something" comes to mind
