Fluffy, the Siamese cat made a bad career move by running in front of a car this morning. However, these vultures look at it from a much different perspective! Shot with the HS-10 w/TCON17 at a range of about 500 yards.

Fluffy's mom comes the rescue. Better late than never, I guess. This video picks up after she has scattered the buzzards and gone to the trunk for a plastic bag.

That's one way of looking at it, I reckon! I just posted this as a show of how efficient God's world is. Nothing goes to waste outside of man's little sphere.
Unfortunately cats do go after birds...but I have come to the opinion that the only ones they catch ar the old, sick, or unaware. I am believing that is "natures" way of control. I must day though this did sadden me as our animals cannot outrun moroeized vehicles. Here in the North we see a lot of deer, moose or bear dead on the side of the roads. The wolves and road workers dispose of the carcases. I would rather see them go to coyotes and wolves though.
