Aaaah The Smell of Rotting Bird in the mid Day Sun :laughing7:

BRIDGEWATER, N.J. (AP) — The dead vulture's feathers snap and crack, breaking apart as its frozen wings are spread for one last flight.
It will soon soar gracefully — albeit briefly — into a tree in this hilly New Jersey suburb, hoisted to a branch where it will hang, upside down, until spring.


Vultures may like to eat road kill but it turns out they don't like the sight of their own dead upside down.
"They don't like seeing their own in that unnatural position," Rein said.

Contrary to Rein's belief the vultures don't like seeing their dead, it's something totally unrelated.

You see for years, pigeons have been migrating from Brooklyn, to NJ, and they actually strung up that vulture as a warning to stay off their turf. Kindda like the horses head, and an offer you can't refuse thing :icon_thumright: :tongue3:
 
i would have thought maybe Jersey was trying out new christmas decorations
 
Well, unless the law has changed, it is illegal to kill a vulture. They are very usefull in cleaning up the dead animals. Three of them live in my barn and and dispose of dead animals in the area. Frank
