Birds of Kentucky: Turkey Vulture in flight
2018-09-07 - Shelby Co., KY - Photo by Pen
Ungainly on the ground, turkey vultures can soar rather gracefully once in the air. Wikipedia has this to say about turkey vultures: "The turkey vulture is awkward on the ground with an ungainly, hopping walk. It requires a great deal of effort to take flight, flapping its wings while pushing off the ground and hopping with its feet. While soaring, the turkey vulture holds its wings in a shallow V-shape and often tips from side to side, frequently causing the gray flight feathers to appear silvery as they catch the light. The flight of the turkey vulture is an example of static soaring flight, in which it flaps its wings very infrequently, and takes advantage of rising thermals to stay soaring." Comments | Permalink
