Turkey Vulture passing through

April 26, 2012 - Toronto - King Street

Linda Woods Reports:

This morning at around 10:45 a.m. a Turkey Vulture was floating circles over the King Edward Hotel. Expecting one or both adults to come out and run it out of the area, I was disappointed. No reaction from either adult peregrine. Everything remained quiet.

This afternoon, one adult sitting on the nest ledge near the camera. At  5:15 p.m. a second Turkey Vulture, perhaps the same one, passing through the area. This one was flying very fast and heading what appeared to be the Spit. Perhaps this bird had the advantage of a tail wind and pass through quickly and again no reaction from either adult peregrine.
