Vulture in Brampton

by Greg Shepard
(Brampton, Ontario, Canada)

I awoke to the sun shining and sleep still in my eyes, decided to step outside (7:30am)and noticed a Robin singing for a mate, and one appeared right before my eyes.


As I watched to see what may transpire, a beautiful black bodied red headed Vulture appeared in my view and headed my way.

I was so transfixed, I froze in awe as it passed me by. I looked around to see if anyone else was around to see or share such a magical moment in life that one gets now and then.

I'm sure someone else did, just not around me.

No luck getting pics.

Yes, Turkey Vultures are magnificent!

Turkey Vultures are in Brampton
by: Luv D Vine

A few weeks ago, in early July I thought I saw a turkey vulture soaring over the Lowes on Steeles. I thought l, Nash - I only see such birds when in Florida or in Jamaica. My suspicion was confirmed when I saw one last week and again yesterday close to Chinguacousy and Drinkwater Rd. Yup, for sure they are in Brampton. I guess they are visiting as our Summers have been pretty hot lately!

Vulture in Brampton

I was driving home from work and thought I saw a hawk circling until it landed on a backyard fence. I was in shock to see it was a red headed vulture. It was at Vodden and Main St in Brampton.

Hi, dropping my wife at school. Coming from the rooftop was a Vulture ready to eat some recent road kill. I didn't know they were in Ontario. Shock!
