i'm on the 3rd floor of my building and 3 vultures just landed on the ledge outside my window. One of them is just staring at me.

Its really weird, to say the least. THeir huge birds too. at least one and a half feet tall each.

When I lay out at my 1000 yd rifle range and shoot, it's not uncommon to see them start circling over me. I think they're roosting in the treeline just east of my property, because I see them every day

You have a rifle, right? Let them have it!!! :D Then they can eat one of their own.

Nah, they're not bothering me, and besides, they're a protected bird. I know the game warden, but he'd still fine me if he found out.

i dont actually think they can see me though... the windows are tinted and reflective, so from the outside they cant see in..

my guess is that maybe they see their reflection in the windows and are looking at themselves

hehe they're waiting for themselves to die ;)

I wouldn't be too worried tho... unless one of them started talking to you with a British accent.
Surprised nobody has asked for pics yet. :p

you should go over to the window and make faces at them then. they would have no idea! that would be funny.

I was out on my Kawasaki X2 Jetski this weekend on the lake and I felt like bait as the hawks were circling overhead..

Man I love jetskiing.. I also like finding low flying birds and trying to follow their flight pattern.. Its harder on my stock x2 than it is on the wife's 900zxi though since it moves much faster.
