媒体文件注释

Quiet hissing from a vulture perched on our deck railing. There's no sound category for this: it is not a call, really, but it's also vocal.

观察细节

Flew in and perched in the rear feeder area, very close to the house. One landed, twice, on the back deck railing, and another atop the hanging bark butter log. The one on the railing hissed a few times. Their purpose was unclear. It looked like they might be thinking about visiting the water dish on the deck, but they didn't. Maybe they're picking up on a dead animal whose odor we are not catching. Alternatively, it's an omen, and we're going to die soon.
