I went for a walk last night on Hubbard Street and Marvin, and counted 29
turkey vultures in a kettle over the town. Heather counted 33. They landed
in the pine trees to the east of Hubbard on top of the hill. I’ve never
seen so many before - absolutely incredible.
I uploaded some photos here: https://ebird.org/vt/view/checklist/S54149586
