The Buzzard Tree

The Buzzard Tree Poem and Photo - Bernice Isaacs

Gene and Bernice Isaacs were recently here at the ranch herding cattle. Bernice took this picture of a tree near the old headquarters. The buzzards have made the old tree a roosting spot. The whole tree fills with buzzards every day – makes a great photo op! Bernice wrote a poem to accompany her photo. There is always something interesting to see at Double Circle Ranch.

Buzzards (Turkey Vultures) are just one of the 140+ species of birds we see at the ranch. They aren’t the prettiest birds, but they do have a unique place in the ecosystem. So buzzards are a welcome sight here.
