Vultures are considered ugly creatures by many, but they are very important, cleaning up after the carnivores. Yesterday we had dozens of White-backed Vultures on Thanda Safari feasting on the remains of a Zebra carcass. Their excellent eye-sight and a very keen sense of smell helps them to detect dead animals from far away.
Vultures are one of the ‘Ugly Five’ beside Warthogs, Wildebeests, Hyenas, and Marabou Storks.

My oldest is taking photography as one of their college classes. I took some of your classes at the Nashville zoo and I’ve filled you ever since. We have always loved your photography and now that my oldest understand the technical stuff more, they LOVE the fact that you give the technical data. It has helped them in their own photography. Thanks for providing this information.
