 This is a close up of one of the beautiful turkey vultures I spotted in a group of them (sometimes called a "committee") gathered on a well-known snag on a little mountain in a local park.

I don't always get a chance to see their tails and flight feathers, as the great mantle of their wings often overwhelms all. They're generally described as "grey," but they appear wonderfully silver in the sunlight.
