The wife and I went out to MLK Shoreline to see if the rain had been =
enough to create decent pools of water as you first drive in.  It had.  =
We saw an osprey dining on a still wiggling fish with three turkey =
vultures circling overhead.  One vulture landed about eight feet from =
the osprey, spread his wings as wide as he could and began inching =
toward the osprey in what could only mean "break yourself" in bird =
language.  The osprey stared back and at about three feet  the vulture =
broke eye contact and turned a bit.  Osprey takes off with fish and =
vulture pursues a few hundred yards hoping for a dropped fish, no such =
luck.  Vulture comes back and picks around the ground for osprey =
table-scraps.  Turkey vultures just became more interesting.

Happy birding
Bob
