Buzzards are getting ready to migrate

Turkey Vulture
It is not a pretty bird but than neither is the much discussed California Condor.  I have seen more buzzards this season than in past seasons.  I do not know why.  I do know that they migrate south in the winter and then return on March 17th to Hinckley.  I have seen several down by the covered bridge lately. They seem to enjoy siting with their wings spread in the sun.

  They remain closer to the ground.  Maybe it is warmer there.  I does provide an opportunity to photograph them closer up.
