Not a Happy Sight

My computer crashed a few days ago. I bought a new one, took a day to install it, and SHAZAM, here we are again!
 
I shot the attached picture at Point Reyes this morning. I noticed some Turkey Vultures fluttering around, about 50 feet from the Earthquake Trail. They were partly hidden in the tall grass, but I figured they must be working on a dead animal. I carefully approached, trying to not fall on my face! A few vultures flew off. Finally I spotted the dead deer and two vultures that insisted on holding their ground. As you can see, they allowed me to get quite close.
 
Not all pictures can be of happy scenes.
