It doesn't get any creepier than this. This vulture was part of a flock that was perched in a dead tree in a cemetery.:eek:

Taken in Av Mode w/400L and 1.4X II TC

Reading the EXIF, that's a damn good picture, considering. I love these guys. I won't say it's so ugly it's cute. We're not talking bulldog puppies. This guy is just plane ugly. But you got to respect that. :D

Nice capture, tough to get a good shot of one perched.

Photography is my only pathological addiction; hopefully it won't drive me to something worse. :rolleyes: :oops:

And that adds much more interest to an already excellent image Paul.
Nice capture of the Turkey Vulture

Did you manage any wide shots including the Vultures and the cemetery. That would have been one cool shot me thinks. Tough using the 1.4 TC with the 400 but you did a pretty good job.
