Nature Walk Part 2

 On my daily walks I have come across a lot of nature. I told you the story of the ducks and the ducklings are growing fast.  This week I have had many encounters with vultures.  Do you know what vultures smell like?  I didn't but I do now.  They smell like DEATH! I have now encountered vultures on three different occasions and each time, after the first encounter, I now hold my breath when I pass by them and  I pass by them at a distance too because I do not want any interactions with them either.  The first encounter they were picking at a dead turtle in the middle of the sidewalk that I walk on; I moved to the street.  The second time they were picking at a dead rabbit.  The third time, two days ago, it was a dead armadillo.  Vultures are not very afraid of many things, especially humans so I just try to avoid them.  I do live in a very suburban area with lots of housing divisions so to see vultures in this area does surprise me.  I am hoping for less encounters during my daily walks.

Update on my SIL: he is out of the hospital and is home on oxygen and recovering well.  We are so glad to have him home.  He is doing great!  Thanks for the prayers; prayers work!
