They do us a great service, and for their troubles get a bad rep.

So true. I think of them as the clean-up crew 🙂

Yep, that’s them. We don’t jave them in the UK, nor wolves. Foxes, owls and crows.

It’s been years since I saw a vulture, thankfully! They are ugly birds, aren’t they? It would be a bit unsettling to see one outside, me thinks. 🙂 Happy Monday, Susan!
