Two vultures were in the desert eating a dead clown. The first vulture asks the second vulture: "Does this taste funny to you?"

:(

'Most likely up in a tree'. Oh Rly? This is why he's a bird expert then...

That vulture might get to 10,000 ft in Africa but its unlikely to beat 5000 ft in the UK even on a good day - vultures don't usually cloud climb and the cloud base doesn't often reach 5,000, let alone exceed it by more than a few hundred feet.

Yesterday (Wednesday) it would have climbed to 3500 ft at best and today, judging by the detailed forecast for Bedfordshire, it will probably be standing in a tree.

It's definitely possible for it to get up quite high, the highest ever birdstrike recorded was the same species, 37000ft up, somewhere over the Ivory Coast. OK, so it was Africa rather that Britain...

@ Dave: Pygmies have very small feet, you know...

I'll get me coat.

Vultures are social animals...Anybody check the white house roof
