Ok this is the biggest Vulture party ive seen yet . I realize they hang out on the power tower here and they did return to the tower after the party but im a little puzzled at what the attraction was . They must have known something i didnt.

Ok you all ..... what is that back behind the fence an elephant ?? i think there is something dead back there and they cant get to it cause its between the fences. 
There were at least 10 more Blacks and then 10 Turkeys at the mountain across the street so that makes my count 60 Blacks 10 Turkey 
Oh did my Tern watch at Harbor Hospital tonight . Only saw One Caspian but did have 5 Common Tern and the Peregrine Falcon made a  5 second show flying low along the edge of the water near parking lot. Counted 60 Laughing Gulls on the Cherry Hill side of river. Many more in area but too busy looking for Terns to count Gulls .
