After the Earth has been destroyed, it will be the only nice thing to look at \O

Stunning colors and nice to see you used the rule of thirds when taking the pic instead of having subject centered \O \O

I think it is too late. Something has started to move; there is a far greater understanding of the environment than 10 or only five years ago, but until the governments do no start to say NO to dangerous moneymaking developments, the destruction is only delayed :-(

Our beaches are shrinking, not because the water erodes, but because too much sand has been taken from the bottom of the sea in order to construct idiotic "the tallest building in the world" and eccentric palm shaped islands for millionaires in the sea etc. 0*\

It must be something more important or do you want to point out that with animals disappearing also the vultures will disappear?

Nice one Mel. O/\

It is of course, International Vulture Awareness Day.

But as Lis also says, it's not just the loss of vultures that we should be aware of. ^Q^

This is how the photo should look (and no, it's not my best ever pic :o0ps: ).

Amoli came up with the idea of everyone posting their vulture photos for IVAD, so I hope that everyone contributes here today.

Come on Wildies, post your vulture pics below. O/\
