They're Baaaack!
















One true farm fact we are learning is the the turkey vultures love the barn and old silo. Last year they roosted there, had a family and came back again this year as I am sure they have for years. Keeping the farm clean of carcasses. We saw five today, though I only have pictures of this one perching a top the silo.
They seem gross, because they vomit and poo on things and it is putrid. They do eat dead things so their stomach acid is said to burn your skin if they chose to vomit on you. Luckily we avoid that! Anyway they are just a neat bird here on the farm.
