Visit To New Mexico Wildlife Center - Turkey Vulture - Animal Ambassador My friend Kevin and I went to visit the New Mexico Wildlife Center ( @new_mexico_wildlife_center ) in El Valle de Arroyo Seco, New Mexico (near Española) Most of these photos were taken through the cage mesh. Ironically the close up come out better than wider shots. I did the best I could to share these amazing birds with you. #TurkeyVulture #TurkeyVultures #Vulture #Vultures #Scavengers #Scavengers #VulturesOfInstagram #Birds #Bird #BirdPhotography #Birding #BirdingPhotography #Naturalist #PhotoByJeriRae (at New Mexico Wildlife Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpq69r1tgJA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I went on a photo safari with a group yesterday. We went in search of wild horses, and at the end of the trip we saw this guy. We jumped out of the car barefoot because we had taken our wet shoes off after wading in the river for better shots of the wild horses we found. PS: this is the first picture of a TUVU I have ever encountered in the wild while perched. . . . . . #turkeyvulture #turkeyvultures #turkeyvulturesofinstagram #turkeyvulturesociety #inthewild #preening #shotonnikon #shotonnikond3500 #tamronlens #tamron150600mm #tamron150600g2 (at Phon D Sutton Recreation Area) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf6YddfLGJ6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Turkey Vulture.
Tumblr media
This bird flew over the house yesterday.
"The Turkey Vulture uses its sense of smell to locate carrion. The part of its brain responsible for processing smells is particularly large, compared to other birds. Its heightened ability to detect odors—it can detect just a few parts per trillion—allows it to find dead animals below a forest canopy. The Turkey Vulture maintains stability and lift at low altitudes by holding its wings up in a slight dihedral (V-shape) and teetering from side to side while flying. It flies low to the ground to pick up the scent of dead animals." - allaboutbirds.org

Favorite Photo - Turkey Vulture August 2022 - I didn’t choose these because they are the best photos but because I was happy to see these amazing birds for the first time a few months ago. They are the most graceful flyers. I just enjoy them riding the thermals in large circles looking for carrion. More on the Turkey Vulture: “The turkey vulture is a scavenger and feeds almost exclusively on carrion. It finds its food using its keen eyes and sense of smell, flying low enough to detect the gasses produced by the beginnings of the process of decay in dead animals. In flight, it uses thermals to move through the air, flapping its wings infrequently. It roosts in large community groups. Lacking a syrinx—the vocal organ of birds—its only vocalizations are grunts or low hisses. It nests in caves, hollow trees, or thickets. Each year it generally raises two chicks, which it feeds by regurgitation. It has very few natural predators. In the United States, the vulture receives legal protection under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918.”- Wikipedia #FavoritePhotos #TurkeyVultures #TurkeyVulture #Vulture #Scavenger #Birds #Bird #BirdPhotography #Birding #BirdingPhotography #Naturalist #PhotoByJeriRae (at Santa Fe, New Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClCeQBoPHeu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We rented a car to bum around the Valdes Peninsula near Puerto Madryn. We weren't here at the right time for the whales but it's still an absolute treasure trove of wildlife. Guanacos are going to be the first things you see, and you're going to see a lot of them, but apparently yelling, “NOT A LLAMA!” out of the window is not conducive to getting photos of anything other than their arses as they run away. We headed to Caleta Valdes to see the seals which were just sunbathing, occasionally flicking sand onto their backs. I could definitely get on board with being a seal, just slobbing about all fat and stinking of fish. In fact catch me on any given Sunday and I’m nearly there. Next stop, penguins, and they're right there on the cliffs by the carpark. They gave zero fucks about the starey, cooing apes. They were just hanging out, mostly in their couples, some of them occasionally braying like donkeys. One of them waddled onto the boardwalk to inspect us a bit closer before it realised we weren’t that interesting and waddled back off. We saw more seals, an armadillo, lizards, things that look like emus but aren't emus. It was such an amazing day. . https://travelnshit.com/2022/12/23/a-trip-around-the-valdes-peninsula/ • • • #argentina #visitargentina #travel #travelgram #instatravel #wanderlust #lesbiantravel #couplegoals #travelcouple #peninsulavaldes #puertomadryn #sealion #wildlife #wildlifespotting #magellanicpenguin #armadillo #nature #naturegram #instanature #turkeyvulture (at Península Valdés) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm5FYXkOosY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
