Everglades National Park, Florida, USA. Used to being near humans, this black vulture stood still for me, allowing me to get quite close, as though posing for the portrait.

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?
Think 'beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder' is appropriate for this excellent 'portrait', Thad.
Love the friendly look it its eyes, my friend, ☺ .

He does look quite benign despite have not such a pleasant reputation.
It is a very fine portrait with great detail - not one I would like on my wall though :)

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
It must be waiting for a 'morsel of food'!...lol

. . . Earth laughs in flowers! Ralph Waldo Emerson
Awesome shot! He looks young and strong.
I love that you can see the vanes of the feathers and their deep, mottled, antiqued metal coloration. I love that you can see his ear, every wrinkle, the opaque translucence of his beak, and the Florida skies reflected in his eyes.

I have seen these guys hang around the big gators down that way. They know the big boys are messy eaters know there will be plenty of scraps laying around.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967
Super sharp detail! He looks quite peaceful, so I think he is fed well.

Nature's garbage disposal species - I think they're really cool birds - they're always at "work" in my neighborhood - great shot of this guy Thad!!!!!!!!
