Backyard Autumn Nature in New Jersey.

Turkey Vulture and the Moon. Several hundred turkey vultures spent the night in some local trees. This morning I went out at dawn to get some images as they started to fly away. Unfortunately, I didn’t get the whole wing span as this one flew by the moon.Image taken with a Nikon D3s camera and 300 mm f/2.8 VR lens (ISO 1600, 300 mm, f/2.8, 1/1000 sec).

Backyard Vandalism in New Jersey.

I guess I didn’t give out enough candy at Halloween that year. The amazing thing is that they didn’t trip over or steal the tripod and camera that I had out in the backyard that night doing night sky/star trails.
