Slightly Unusual Bird Poses

[DLeeT]

Yep, turkey vulture, very common scavenger bird around here. Ugly as can be, but they are beautiful fliers. Lee

The turkey vulture might have a face like Freddy Kruger, but they're still very beautiful birds, especially in flight. personally I think the California condor is a fairly ugly bird, but they're still amazing to see (HUGE! too)

Great seeing this thread and shots still going excellent shots in this thread and what a gorgeous model there Lee

Dave, that's where wildlife meets natural art IMO. What a gorgeous pose even without the head or eye showing, a true beauty !!. Well seen and taken with beautiful form and feathering texture.

Thanks Danny! Honestly, I didn't think it was worthy of posting it but I figured why not.

not an unusual pose for a human, but probably is for a bird, but I call this one Rico Suave, the Raven.

(slightly interesting note he has a slightly red tint to his feathers because he's been scavenging for food in the shores of the great salt lake which turns a reddish color each year due to a certain bacteria in the water.)

'this white stuff is cold!'

okay, so I'm stretching on the 'unusual pose' part in some of these, but hey it does say "slightly" unusual

That would be a turkey vulture

lol.. who gave this name? It's like they ran out of name and thought, hey lets take two random birds and create a new name.

Great shots Justin. That Eagle would be one of the most powerful I have seen on the net. That is one Eagle I would not want to mess with So strong looking with that foot up and that intense stare. Wonderful to see !!.

All the best Justin and it fits in well.

Okay The Sacred Kingfisher is about the size of a Sparrow, but no way would I survive too long with this one

I call this one ...... Mr Eastwood

All the best folks.

Danny. :bigangel:

Well worth posting, David. Keep 'em coming! Lee
P. S. My feelings are a little hurt -- not one "like" on my beautiful bird shot. :violin:
