Turkey Vulture

My wife caught this Turkey Vulture in the back yard. We had roasted a duck then stripped the bones and boiled them for soup stock. When done with them we dumped the bones behind the house thinking the local coyote would like a snack. The next day she saw this magnificent bird in the back yard apparently picking up the bones. After the vulture left my wife went out to see what was left and nary a bone was found.

Good shot but it is a bad practice to place cooked bones out for wildlife.They can eat raw bones but cooked bones can cause them to choke and die.
