Nature's road crew at work. So sad that a doe was hit by a car yesterday. I sure hope it wasn't one of my deer. Nature is efficent, though. A large flock of Black Vultures began the cleanup long before the county could get a truck out to remove the body.
How can you tell a Black Vulture from a Turkey Vulture? Black Vultures have a deep grey head but the head of a Turkey Vulture is red. Also, Black Vultures have white on the underside of their wings. You can see the white feathers in this picture.
I will worry about my deer until I see the old doe, the doe with her twins, and the doe with the single fawn. Wouldn't that be a nice Christmas present from Mother Nature to see them all peacefully grazing in the marsh?
