Hi sury,
Is it a Turkey Vulture (Cathartes aura)?
Like the second one the most. Beautiful animal!

Mark,
Thank you. I leave it to experts (like you) to classify. My (limited) knowledge said it was
a bird of prey.

Oh no no no! Expert is WAY too much recognition for my simple deduction skills. Google is my friend toosury wrote:Mark,

Re: Birds 2014
Wow - a stunning set, Mark. You obviously have the same sunny morning we have here
I really like the colours in the water in #3, it makes a great picture. The tern shot is also lovely against the blue sky. Congrats on the cuckoo! I heard one while out this morning but I didn't even see it let alone get it in camera! I spent a very happy morning crawling around in the frosty and wet grass with the early orchids. My post processing will take a bit longer - man, you're fast!
