Title
Turkey Vulture
Artist
Barry Kent MacKay
Medium
Painting - Acrylic On Compressed Hardboard
Description
An obligate scavenger, the Turkey Vulture (Cathartes aura) is not only harmless, but performs something of a social service by removing dead animals from roads and other locations, thus keeping the environment clean. Their powerful digestive system apparently neutralizes some otherwise potentially dangerous microorganisms that might otherwise be harmful to us or other species. It is now abundant and widely spread throughout much of North, Central and South America and the West Indies. This painting was a cover for Ontario Birds, the journal of the Ontario Field Ornithologists. I know the likelihood of a vulture painting selling is remote, but I don’t care…I like the painting and so had it framed. The painting is acrylic on compressed hardboard, and is about 30 X 24 inches, not including the frame.
