strange story
Aug. 31st, 2006 07:23 pmMy sister just told me this story.
Mom was staying with Joyce (my sister) when she died. Her house is in a tiny town on the edge of the woods. It was hot out and she had the windows all open, Joyce was outside watering flowers when she looked up & saw about 10 huge birds with immense wingspans circling her house. The neighbor came out to watch too and said they were 'turkey vultures'. They circled for quite awhile. Mom died about 6 hours later.
Turkey vultures (in the local venacular called 'buzzards') are not common birds in that area. Joyce said she had never seen any before and I have only sighted them once, even as often as I have been in that woods.
