One more street tree, and some Turkey Vultures Barry Caselli
  January 19, 2009

After photographing the cedar swamp, seen in my last post, I drove some of the residential streets in Egg Harbor City. First I found this pretty big tuliptree, which I found to be very picturesque.
Then behind someone's house there were all these Turkey Vultures roosting in two trees. A man came out of the house next door, because he was curious what I was doing. He says they are there  during certain times of the day, every day. I know they are literally everywhere in South Jersey, so they weren't a surprise to me.

This tuliptree is the largest street tree I've seen in Egg Harbor yet, but I don't think it's as tall as either of the last two I showed you.
By the way, someone earlier posted a picture of an owl (which I thought was very cool). What a coincidence. When I was hiking the dirt road that I mentioned in an earlier post today, I heard an owl during part of the hike, though I don't know what kind.
 
Enjoy the photos,
Barry
