There were turkey vultures up at the vineyard in Mendicino County where I used to work way back a long long time ago.
On cold mornings, they'd perch on the vineyard posts at the ends of the rows, spread their wings and let the sun warm them up. Some mornings you could see the 'steam' coming off their wings from the heat of the sun on the black feathers. Seeing anywhere from 6 to a dozen of these big birds doing this was quite the sight as the sun was always a back light to them from the house viewing point.
I really enjoyed watching the white kites do their hunting in the afternoons too. Seeing a bird that big hoovering in mid air is something else.
