    here you go.


    The Turkey Vulture is a scavenger and feeds almost exclusively on carrion.[4] It finds its food using its keen eyes and sense of smell, flying low enough to detect the gases produced by the beginnings of the process of decay in dead animals.[4] 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.[5] It nests in caves, hollow trees, or thickets. Each year it generally raises two chicks, which it feeds by regurgitation.[6] It has very few natural predators.[7] In the United States, the vulture receives legal protection under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918.[8]

    Let me break this down for you.

    The Turkey Vulture is a scavenger and feeds almost exclusively on carrion.[4] It finds its food using its keen eyes and sense of smell, flying low enough to detect the gases produced by the beginnings of the process of decay in dead animals.(All you brewer fishermen need to change air fresheners in your rigs more often)[4] In flight, it uses thermals to move through the air, flapping its wings infrequently. It roosts in large community groups. (They will be easy to wing shoot, but a roost shoot will be the bomb) Lacking a syrinx—the vocal organ of birds—its only vocalizations are grunts or low hisses.(Forget trying a conventional call for these birds. The best attractant will be a diet of beans and cabbage the night before. This will appeal to the vulture both audibly and olfactory.) [5] It nests in caves, hollow trees, or thickets(Which are all prime cotton mouth or rattle snake territory). Each year it generally raises two chicks, which it feeds by regurgitation.(Anything that is raised on vomit will probably grow up to vandalize automobiles)[6] It has very few natural predators.(This means all you hating on the vulture are just unnatural) [7] In the United States, the vulture receives legal protection under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918.(They didn't know much about vultures eating cars in 1918...most people didn't even have a car then, but you can bet if the peoples that passed the law woulda had trouble with vultures eating on their horses and buggies, they wouldn't have been protected)

    There you go. I should have a job deciphering what people really mean.

    I figure that tree they sit in isn't on that list.
    Crappie bite twice a day. 15 minutes before I get there and 10 minutes after I leave.
    The sheep live in fear of the wolf but in the end it's the shepherd that eats them.
    The two loudest sounds are a gun that goes click when it is supposed to go bang and
    a gun the goes bang when it is supposed to go click.

    P.L. 105-312 also amends the law to allow the fine for misdemeanor convictions under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act to be up to $15,000 rather than $5000

    They used to roost in a large dead pine tree close to my house, I just cut down the tree and they went somewhere else, maybe to Anderson's branch
