The average arrival date for vultures is Valentine's day. I had three on my
raptor survey yesterday over Melrose. :O)

Driving in town today I saw two different ones. Someone--I think on this
list--has said that their expected arrival date for vultures is Valentine's
Day. :-) They will probably be more regular from here on out.

Hello All,
On our walk this morning on Sawyer Creek Road (7miles west of Elkton) we were
surprised to see a lone Turkey Vulture circling overhead. Didn't feel like
Spring this morning!
