Can
we guess who?

Harris’s
Hawk.

Another
Southern bird.
Unique
in that they hunt in packs like wolves. Some will land and flush prey for
others to pounce on, then they share the meal.

Like
the black vulture, a southeastern scavenger, but even more southern.
Southern Arizona, South Texas, and a few in Florida.
…again,
why isn’t Steve sending out more bird pictures?
Okay.
If you insist.
Black
vulture.

It’s
a lot like the Turkey Vulture, but while the turkey vulture is everywhere, the
black vulture is more southeastern.
Years
ago, it looked like this.

Abandoned.
A
couple years later, even more worse for the wear.

There
were local efforts to save the church and rehab it, but help didn’t arrive in
time. The remnants of a hurricane blew it down.

That
was the last insult. Money was donated. Volunteers rebuilt the
little historic Guadalupe Toreros Church.

That
was a couple years ago. We took a driveabout today to see how it’s doing.

Fully
functional and cared for.
The
FBI has a Violent Crime Section.
“If
an actual murder, kidnapping, or physical assault is recorded and distributed,
the FBI investigates the case as a violent crime, homicide, or civil rights
violation.”
Just
saying…
