Saturday's Critters and I'd Rather B Birdin'

Click on the photos to see them at their best.

Turtles usually dive under the water before I can get a photo, but this one waited for me. Thanks Mr. Turtle!

After a brief rain shower yesterday, I saw this Black Vulture, Coragyps atratus, spreading its wings with its back to the sun to dry its feathers.

Have a wonderful weekend!

I am linking in today with Saturday's Critters and I'd Rather B Birdin'

  1. Hello, Lea
    The turtles are kind of camera shy. I love the turtle and the Black Vulture. They are both great sightings and photos. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a happy weekend!

  2. As you say, turtles have a way of slipping into the water the moment you raise your camera! This one was a little more cooperative.

  5. I saw a Turkey Vulture soaring around this morning. It is always a thrill to see a turtle in the wild.
