Gardens & TV's

Turkey Vultures, that is. Friday night I was in such a hurry to get to class that I left my wallet at work. I went back Saturday morning to pick it up and found a big ole turkey vulture in the parking lot, cleaning up some pitifully flat squirrel. The TV's are skittish, if a car is coming within 75 feet that is too close and they start to move along. I zoomed in as much as I could and got off a couple of shots. On the way back out of the lot, I saw a 2nd TV had joined the first and got a few more photos - you can see how nervous they are knowing I am there, in my car, watching them.

I have 2 squash plants sprouting. I know not if they are punkin, zucchini nor yellow squash, but they are sprouting and that's all I care about at the moment. I also have Odoriko tomato growing - it's the only tomato to sprout so far. I currently have 3 growing plants in the garden area, compared to 20 I had last season. BF looked at my measly garden this year and said, "is that ALL the tomatoes you are growing?" Little did he know I have 12 starter pots of seeds and I was liberal with the seeding so we'll see what comes out and what goes in the garden. My garlic is fabulous & happy, I really should have planted more but in October, there aren't many sunny places that I can give up for almost an entire year. My sole 'year-round sunny spots' are usually reserved for the maters.
