Keep your eyes on the skies:  I saw two black vultures and one turkey
vulture December 8 in Holmes County near the intersection of Route 62 and
Route 206.

Never assume that any black bird "floating" in the sky is a turkey vulture.
If the wings look a little shorter and "not quite right", give the bird a
good look.  There are more black vultures out there than most people think.
