The pictures of these Turkey Vultures were taken in Doodletown near Bear Mountain, New York. The picture of these Turkey Vultures were taken with the CANON EOS7D and the CANON 100-400mm lens.
This is one of the first times that I have been lucky enough to be able to take pictures of a Turkey Vulture preening and looking very grand!
Wow such feathers !
That longest group with a tapering end are amazing.
And the layered groups of shorter feathers that put power into the longest ones without breaking them how splendid.
Thanks for your comment Lorenz. I totally agree. It is an amazing and beautiful configuration of feathers.
