Update on Buzz, my "pet" Black Vulture

mollymolly Loc: In the heart of the Everglades.
 
He comes to the dock maybe 2 or 3 times a week now. I think he just wants to show off his new lady friend. She is one of the reasons that he started flying again. She likes to be on top of the Chickee and he wanted to be with her. His flight is a little wobbly still, but he is getting better. I'm so happy that he is going to be OK and not depend on me for his survival. Not that I mind having him around, I just like the fact that he cn do it on his own now!

Buzz is the one standing guard over his girl.

Together again, with him standing proud!

Thanks. He had a wing injury and was unable to fly for quite a while. I saw him and started feeding him. Some UHH members gave me a lot of flack about it[basically it was, just let him die-it's wrong to try to tame a wild animal, etc....] Well, I now know that I did the right thing!![but I never doubted it]

Good shots
Good for Buzz, soon there will be little Buzzies around. Nothing like a lady friend to perk him up.
