Day 11

In the morning there are hundreds of these birds in one tree outside my door. My alarm clock.
I was told there are a lot of birds in Turkey. In the time I’ve been here, I’ve seen over 60 different species of birds. And all of them decide to roost in the tree just outside my room. All of them are camera-shy (of course), but this one decided to strike a pose for me.

That shot reminds me of the Ravens from Resident Evil Apocolypse. Try not to get bitten, K?
They are definitely carrion birds. I saw one this morning…it looked at me as I was walking to breakfast and had a foot on a pizza box. While I watched it slammed its beak into the box and then ripped it in half. I’ve never seen anything like it.
