Our vultures aren't back yet. I keep looking, but with 6-8 inches of snow forecast for tonight, I guess it's too early. #11686519

I love how you did this Jeff. That page of blue lets us pin point the vulture and you did such a beautiful job with its colors and those details. That is exceptional work. Then the day moon really is special and adds another wonderful dimension to the picture. Gorgeous in every way Jeff. #11686533
