[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1641101, member: 24816"] The red head turkey buzzards are just scavengers but the black headed buzzards are opportunistic predators. They will also sometimes follow the turkey buzzards to a carcass and then run them away from it. It looks like to me that they have overtaken the red head ones, hardly ever see any of those anymore in comparison. We sometimes see large groups of black buzzards circling looking for a target like a new calf. One day back in the early spring found a heifer showing signs of imminent calving and there were already several black buzzards sitting in trees around her. We ran them off and drove the the heifer to the barn. [/QUOTE]
