 Turkey Vulture Nuisance

They say there is some beauty in every creature, but I fail to see it in the turkey Vulture.
I think that God designed them to be that ugly so we would appreciate how beautiful the rest of the birds are. Frank.

 Turkey Vulture Nuisance

The bald eagle has made a dramatic comeback in eastern Iowa in the last few years, it is real common to see them now. 20 years ago you had to drive to the dams on the Mississippi River to see them.
Being they are scavenger birds there are some who sit in an old dead tree across the road form our farmhouse watching me come and go. Being I have to use a walker to get around anymore they are watching for a free meal if I drop in the yard.

 Turkey Vulture Nuisance

Yes, I have a place on the loader frame that I carry my walker on the trator. The lawn mower has no place to carry one and I did get stranded this summer when the mower quit on me. The Mrs. was shopping with the grand daughters that afternoon and she had instructed me before she left to NOT do any mowing, but you know how that goes. I do carry a cell phone and called the Deere dealer who had a service person there within an hour to fix the mower, in the meantime I just sat there and waited. I still work in the woodshop building furniture and have two gardens that I tend on my hands and knees. My problem orignated with a fall on the ice breaking my pelvis and have never regained the full use of my legs. I've been to the Mayo Clinic several times and they haven't figured it out either why my legs won't work so it is just a nuscance, not really a handicap in my mind. Long as I can still do something I'm not going to go to the rocking cahir, too many people die sitting in them.
