Black vultures on power mast

Black vultures on power mast
At this time of year, many vultures congregate at this electrical sub-station to spend the night with their relatives.

I count 121 birds in this photo of the tower.

Coragyps atratus

I don't know. They seem to fill the lower levels first. Thanks for the visit, Doug.

I looked carefully at how the birds were distributed in this photo. Most of them were near the bottom of the tower. The middle of the tower was empty, and several birds were at the top two tiers. I imagine this changes considerably in the late evening while the birds are settling into their sleeping arrangements.
