To me, turkey vultures feel like a love letter from Mother Nature. Although they eat meat, they don't hunt (earning them the nickname "peace eagle"). Instead, they clean up what might otherwise go to waste, keeping everyone else safer and healthier by reducing the spread of disease. Despite being considered by most to be conventionally "ugly" birds, they're frequently mistaken for the conventionally "beautiful" eagle from a distance. They roost, migrate, and feed with their families.
