The Buzzard Creamed Us!


How many times have you wondered if that bunch of buzzards up ahead of you on the highway will get out of the way in time?

This was that fateful day the roadkill-eating buzzard creamed us on the highway near Santispac, Bay of Conception. We were going a mite too fast for the overloaded bird to flap out of the way...and he came right between us and splatted into the gas tank right behind our heads...losing part of his lunch that you can see stuck to the tank! Yecchh.

So the next time you see that group of buzzards feeding on roadkill up ahead...use a little caution and slow down! Some are a little slower than others!

By the way, that buzzard survived this episode...tough birds.

p.s. Hope I am not ruining anyone's breakfast or lunch?

I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Out by the goat ranch ~50 km N. of Loreto...


we saw a wounded zopolote in the road and thought it curious. Just around the corner a Bronco was pulled over, and the windshield was TOAST. A real eye-opener. Those sukkas are heavy enough to do some damage.:yes:
