Yup. Neighbor took down a very large dead pine (~90 ft) and they have
moved on. Talk has it they came this way since their favorite roost in
Mullica Hill where slaughter waste used to be available was forced to
placed in a land fill. So the birds had to venture out and the protein
they recycled was buried.
They are not too bad unless you have a bunch about. Lots of bird
droppings big time. I encountered one by my compost who stood its
ground. I gave up and retreated as I think they can throw up on you when
annoyed.

Thanks Charlie but I think they are following me. ))

I've walked up to them almost to 5 feet. They ignore me in real life.
I've got some film to develop of a young stupid cat jumping on a
vultures back only to be shaken off by extending its wings.

Be thankful you aren't that guy in Rhode Island who can't sell his
house - well, he wouldn't want to sell it if it wasn't the favorite
roosting spot for a flock of turkey vultures....
