  A little interesting note, I watched the breeding clip to the end. The male hung out at the “door” and nodded toward the entrance.
  This is our own reality TV (Turkey Vultures)
  lol, couldn’t resist.

  I am trying to figure out a way to get a picture of the chicks when they hatch without disturbing the family abode.

You got my attention with the previous post about a vulture nest cavity. Until that moment I had never considered they would nest in tree cavities. Thanks for the new awareness!

  A lot of information on T.V. is that it is a ground nester, they are actually opportunistic nesters, and will raise their young anywhere they can find shelter.
