[nysbirds-l] " Return of the TEV - i "

2017-05-12 Thread robert adamo
At 1700 hours, while motoring up from downtown Riverhead, I observed two
sets of two Turkey Vultures roosting on two chimneys, located on two
separate buildings ! The Roanoke Ave Elementary School chimney has been a
favorite of up to 8-9 T.V's. at the same time throughout this past fall and
winter...especially when the school's  boilers were spewing warm flue
products. The 2nd set of birds were roosting on the close-by Court House
chimney - the first time I have seen this species on any part of that
building. Could today's sightings* have anything to do with the cooler
weather we have experienced lately ?

Cheers,
Bob

*Prior to today, it has been weeks since the last vulture was seen in this
area.
