FROG MAN Posted September 22, 2008 Share #1 Posted September 22, 2008 It's just another evening at the camp. Sitting outside in the yard watching the evening sunset. Down under the road bank to my left I can hear squirrels barking and running in the fallen leaves. 75 yards to my right is a little doe nibbling on kernels of corn that have fallen from that 6 gallon bucket hanging from a tree.Gazing upwards just to the right of that western sunset the sky is filled with a strange sight. From the North,South,East, and West. It's the majestic gliding of 150 buzzards meeting in the middle and forming a hughe circling pattern. Like 747's circling OHara their on final approach for a 1/2 acre lot of white pines on top of a rock cliff overlooking the lake. From a quarter mile high down down down they spiral one by one. Each choosing his own runway. Third pine tree from the left looks good as down comes the landing gear.It's early to bed and early rise. Morning flights leave at 6 on Road Kill Patrol.

FROG MAN Posted September 24, 2008 Author Share #11 Posted September 24, 2008 MamaMo is working on some video. I think we should call the place buzzards view but that doesn't set well with her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaMo Posted September 24, 2008 Share #12 Posted September 24, 2008 Ok You asked for video.Here they are but not the best Part 1 and Part 2. Yes it was relaxing at the camp last weekend watching the buzzards coming in to the trees for the night. This point has always been a roosting spot for the vultures. Started feeding the deer out back. Can hear the water flowing over the Falls. Listening to the birds and the crickets singing. Fire pit for the cool evenings. Now win the lottery so I can build down there and live there all the time. :fingers-crossed-emoAnd no I WILL NOT name the place that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0SGaihvKg0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3pMUEEv_b4k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mraf Posted September 24, 2008 Share #13 Posted September 24, 2008 Set up a Bed & breakfast and call it OLD BUZZARDS REST. That way you could be naming it for two of Gods creatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
