Author Thread   janper44 Registered: December 2009 Posts: 7,081 Wed February 17, 2010 2:45am Perhaps ugly but the Texas Vulture as with other vultures serve a real purpose in the chain of life here on Earth and soaring on wing they have a majestic bearing about themselves. I really like how you managed to capture the vulture with the feathers on the tips of the wings spread... creates the sense of fingers and the illusion of the bird swimming through the air. rfishw Registered: February 2009 Posts: 905 Wed February 17, 2010 11:28am Ugly or not I agree with the previous commentor they are a necessary evil.and you have photographed it well. Beautiful photograph veejaycee Registered: February 2009 Posts: 5,689 Wed February 17, 2010 6:03pm You said it yourself - an unpretty face but so graceful on the wing and providing a valuble service as nature's dustbins.
