Oh good — the turkey vultures are here

Seen yesterday in the sky over Avenue B... a pair of turkey vultures ...

Per this random website: "Despite their intimidating presence, vultures are pretty harmless. They have no incentive to attack humans and they lack the physical attributes that could pose a threat. Although they are carnivorous, most vultures feed only on animals that are already dead." (Audobon has a nice TV recap here.) 

Anyway, there are turkey vulture sightings around here from time to time. Nothing to worry about!

Today in ominous turkey vulture sightings over the East Village

Everything's fine! No worries!
