Turkey vultures are best known for being nature's clean-up crew, but did you know they're among the most graceful soaring birds on earth? Come spend a day in the life of a vulture and learn how they fly on thermals of warmed air, preen their feathers to stay squeaky clean, keep up their scavenger diet--and so much more. This updated edition features a new author's note about the inspiration for the book, remastered color, and updated end matter with the latest scientific information about these marvelous and majestic creatures.
