circling overhead....

ok, so....last season's oddly inflated flock of vultures is back.......so numerous that it is not unusual to see 8-10 in a single tree as we drive out the road toward the highway.....i read the papers out on the deck after work yesterday.....an activity that would have been much more enjoyable had 3 vultures not been circling....i always check on the whereabouts of my cat when the vultures are out- just in case.....it appears that they are hanging out here rather than feasting on the fallen.....go figure....
