Buzzard's roost quite a sight in Hurt-Foust Woods

  • Birds can be seen evenings, at dawn in trees behind Gate

  • The woodland they've chosen creates most perfect days

Photo follows this article
Driving north from the Columbia Post Office on KY 61/80, Burkesville Street, there's quite a sight over the Gate Gas Station every afternoon starting and about 4:30 p.m. until dark and again at dawn, after which they fly out to do their daily work.

It looks like something you'd see on the Serengeti or in Hinckley, OH. Every day, perhaps as many as 50 or more buzzards are roosting high in the trees in the Hurt-Foust Woods, behind the pioneer Hurt family home which fronts on Burkesville St.
