The gasket eater

Fellow Pbaser Dave Berry said there’s a sign at a park in the Everglades warning that vultures eat the gaskets around car windows. Luckily ours were intact when we left.

Love the scruffy look of this omnivorous ruffian!

Yes, they can eat anything....almost! Nice shot Helen :))

Bird with the heart shaped eye! He's sharp from tail to the tip of the beak. Looks like he could use a bath, though. Very nice image! V

Oh my...that can be decidedly inconvenient! I loved watching the vultures in the Everglades. Wonderful feather detail in this image.

scavengers must be omnivores too...still that seems a stretch...admire your fine capture here..
