Talking turkey vultures

I have always had an eye on the old sheds sitting in the meadow at North Cloquet Road and Midway Road. They are so photogenic in different lights each day. So, with the camera in the car and tooling around after the Fourth of July parade in Cloquet, I came across two turkey vultures perched on the shed closest to the road. Perfect opportunity. They caught my eye because one had just alit onto the peak, tucking its wide wings to its side. It looked like the two were just having a conversation, maybe about the rainy weather. As I approached and shot away, one of the birds lifted off, leaving the other talking to itself. Then it, too, rose, and they soared over the shed in circles with those wide wingspans. This was obviously their spot, and my intrusion wasn't going to keep them from it. I left, and am sure they settled back down and grumbled about my presence.
