Turkey Vulture (Cathartes aura)

turkey vulture.jpg

You're more likely to see Turkey Vulture in the air, slowly circling with a spread wing wobbly flight, than in your yard...but not always. Preferring carcasses over catching live animals, they have a keen sense of smell to detect their next meal. They live in Waldo year-round, and will roost in high tree tops or other seculuded areas.
