20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Eyeballin' Turkey Vulture

Turkey vulture perched on a bridge support watches as I watch back through my camera lens marveling at the fact that it's only about 12 feet above me, and not budging away at all. Hundreds more lined on the bridge & land in front of me. It's the annual pilgrimage from Pleasant Hill Lake to Hinkley Lake (OH).
