There's a marshy sort of strip of land between the road that runs by my apartment complex and some townhouses. At a guess, it's a bit over 100 meters wide. There's a street that crosses over it with a little bridge in the middle.

Yesterday, when coming home from work, I happened to glance over and saw a dozen or so vultures perched here and there on the railing that runs alongside the bridge. I guess a group of them had decided it was a good place for a rest. There was also one vulture slowly circling and descending as if coming in for a landing. I couldn't tell whether they were black vultures or turkey vultures. I see a lot of the latter around here. With the bushes and tall grass and such along the side of the road, I couldn't get a very good look at them as I drove past.

It's always kind of neat to see wildlife in suburbia. It's easy to forget that there are non-domesticated critters living around us.
