Opportunist!

 On our recent trip to LaGrange, we spent a night in Durham at our usual stop-over Hilton.  We like this place to stop because it is right across from our car dealer if we need any of the cars serviced, and, because the hotel is attached to a Ruth’s Chris Steak House.  The food is good and the wait staff is friendly and charming.

On this visit, after we had spent the night, we were getting ready to go the next morning when I looked out the window to check on the weather. Our room happened to be located directly above the trash bins behind the steak house...where all of their discards and meal remnants must end up.

Seated happily on the enclosure and celebrating the bounty of his find was perched a turkey buzzard. He had probably sniffed out a feast much tastier than road kill.  We laughed and wished him bon appetit and will think of him again next time we eat there.
