Growing up in the Hill Country of Texas, I learned much about the way the world turns, how one thing, is always hunting another. The Circle of Life, if you will. And I've seen road kill on the side of the highway being devoured by Vultures (Buzzards), and I've seen said Buzzards circle their meal before going in, but never have I watched them circle and go in for the taking--Until today! Unfortunately about 10 feet of trees blocked me from whatever they were consuming, but I could hear them dive into the trees, and shake them around. It was fascinating for some strange reason. So, my Sky Watch Friday photos are over my ever closer approach (by car) to this Completely natural, and raw event. (remember to see any image larger, click on it)

Wow...your sky is so blue! We are under the rain, wind and cold. It's so good to see.
ReplyDeleteWell...yummy. LOL I'm thinking that maybe, just maybe you might NOT want to see what they are so intense on devouring. Great photos by the way! The sky is so blue and the last one of the vulture going in is fabulous!
