The red and black faced vultures have roosted in my trees for several years. I have counted more than 100 in one evening. Most of them have headed North and will return in the Fall once again. I watched and waited and watched and waited for over an hour to catch one crossing the full moon! It was worth my wait! Hope you enjoy.........ps. this is a red faced vulture or better known as a turkey vulture)

Your patience and persistence afforded you this super shot, Rita. I hope you were sitting on a back deck with a glass of wine to pass the time. Well done.

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?
It was well worth waiting as this beautiful photo shows. The vignetting enhances the view.

Remember in the dark what God told you in the light.
Excellent shot Rita - perfectly timed - although vultures are not the prettiest birds, I still find them fascinating in that they are nature's garbage collectors and fit into the food chain very nicely.

Tis a great capture, but they are not the best looking bird, I'll say that. The shot makes a nice desktop screen. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent work with this photo, Rita. A nicely captured silhouetted capture of the vulture against the moon and sky. Sadly the only vultures around here are of the two-legged variety.

Wowser, it truly is a shot worth waiting for and it's perfection timed. Really like the full moon & the small clouds going across creating a moody shot. Brilliant posting & right into my favs
