Black Vultures at Lake Osborne

Comment Up
A flock of Black Vultures

The Black Vulture is a scavenger and feeds on dead and decaying flesh of an animal (carrion), but will also eat eggs or kill newborn animals. In areas populated by humans, it also feeds at garbage dumps. It finds its meals either by using its keen eyesight or by following other (New World) vultures, which possess a keen sense of smell. (Wikipedia)

This group was eating the flesh of this animal for over an hour this morning.

  1. Black vultures are the 1% of the animal kingdom

  2. Sounds like a little jealousy to me. Ask obama about the 1 percenters--he is one.

  3. Vultures are the clean up crew of the Animal Kingdom. Without Vultures, disease would spread very rapidly. They perform a very needed service!

  4. The only thing growing faster than Obama's National Debt is the number of golf games that Obama has played!

  5. I'm part of the 1% too I just did it the right way.
    I read the right wing nuts were getting on Obama because they thought playing 125 rounds of golf over 4 years was alot. 125 rounds over 4 years calculates to 2 rounds a week.
    Bush played alot more golf than that. You can still find video footage of Bush saying "we're going to get those terrorists, now watch me hit this tee shot." Nice.
    You can still find video footage of Obama saying "we killed Osama Bin Laden".
    Can you tell the difference?

  6. Mr. Obama has spent the equivalent of four months’ worth of work time golfing. Meanwhile, the U.S. economy has been stuck in a sand trap.
