This vulture's landing was somewhat clumsy but I can understand that because he has no wheels.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

The flaps aren't fully engaged either, and he's trying to land on grass instead of concrete, but the real problem is his bushy white hair blowing in the wind... it's creating lift, the worst thing for a landing! perhaps if he'd tied it up into a pony tail?

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.

Great action shot, Raj.
Think the vulture would be wise in practicing in 'VTOL'(Vertical Take Off and Landing), ☺ .

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
