I loved it there. We took a whooping crane charter boat out to some island where we did see a lot of them and then the next week saw some (for free, my husband pointed out) beside the road. . <br /><br />The pictures of the vultures doing what vultures do is OK with me; they have an important job in this world and somebirdy has to do it!Sallie (FullTime-Life)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15442598857394838271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2973897580512117743.post-13042112147313493832014-03-16T02:26:03.474-07:002014-03-16T02:26:03.474-07:00Great pictures of great birds - I love the vulture...Great pictures of great birds - I love the vulture on the carcass!<br /><br />Finding names for groups of people is very hard - apparently "Anasazi " is derived from words that mean "our old enemy" (or something like that) and it's not favoured.
