Huge bird. We get them around here as well.
You can always tell them from a distance because of their V shaped silhouette.

We call em, Buzzards. There were about a dozen sitting on the roof ridge of my neighbors house, a little bit ago.

Great shots of a very elusive creature.
Thank you very much; yes, they fly so high it's difficult to photograph them well.

There were 3 of them snacking on some roadkill when I went to work on Monday. My MiniCooper would have been toast had I hit one as it flapped away as I approached. LOL

That is an ugly breed of bird. Good shots. I bet they never like how they look in pictures.
