1. find a vulture feeding on fresh road kill
2. park your car close enough for a good shot
3. wait for something good to happen

thanks- I know this method of "hunting" is less elegant perhaps than catching live prey but they seem to have adapted quite well to human influence. they definitely get their way around vultures and buzzards
