On this particular evening, as the sun was setting behind the clouds, the sky had an eerie kind of glow to it.  I was at my mother’s house and snapping a few photos here and there when I walked by her now bare walnut tree and noticed this shot.   What I didn’t notice until afterwards was the group of birds flying towards me.  I noticed them when I lowered the camera….I don’t remember seeing them prior to taking the photo, but there they were.  Large birds, normally gulls, are not unusual around my mother’s house.  She lives near a large river, which feeds into the Chesapeake Bay.  There are vultures that hang around that…
