Good grief, does the kingbird not know how small he is ?! Super capture.

Terrific capture, Hank. That Kingbird is putting the run vulture.

Those eastern kingbirds are feisty birds! Taking on a big guy like the vulture is just what they'd do. Fortunately for them, vultures feed on carrion :-) Terrific shot.

Great photo, Hank. Besides diagonal position of this flying Turkey Vulture as well as Kingbird helps for a fine composition. Well seen and great captured. V.
