Standing in my driveway around 5:00 pm trying to practice hand holding , something I am not good at. I had a 300mm pf on a D7200. They seem made for each other. The Turkey Vultures showed up for their leisurely, afternoon flight over the pond. But, my turkey shoot was interrupted by something, which while smaller, was a bit more aggressive.

Thanks. That one I had figured out as mentioned in the OP.

"In the United States, when someone refers to a buzzard, it means a turkey vulture."
