I saw one in about 1978, so i knew they existed, then in 1980 I saw another and that one stayed in its roost along the Yellowstone river for a few years so he was easy to spot. But that was it: 2 birds. Then in the 90s they required power lines to have roosts above the wires so birds didn't get electrocuted, and other protections began to take hold, and now I can go down to the river and see a few of them, pretty much any day until March, when they'll move to higher ground. Right now they're stalking newborn lambs, etc. so they come in close to town. Biggest threat to them is still lead poisoning from eating dead animals/birds that were shot. 

It's still a thrill to see them. Charlie got a photo of one in town a couple of weeks ago. Hanging out by the grain silos, probably picking off pigeons.

Nice scenery, Dave.  My sister-in-law and her family lived in the Azores about 25-30 years ago; her husband was in the US Air Force and was stationed at a detachment on one of the islands there.
There is still a US Air Force refueling base on Terceira Island. I've met people that had been stationed there and then moved here later.
 
Yeah, I had an uncle stationed there a few times over his Air Force career. Not a bad assignment at all.{#Good-vibes}

Pretty much anything grows like crazy here due to the climate and soil. People get 3 foot Zucchinis and such.. I have a fruit tree ordered on my land with orange trees, banana trees and some various super fruits some that only grow in the Azores. Pineapples grow like crazy here also. I rent my field to a farmer that mows it with a tracker and puts cows there on and off.  Lots of mooing and plenty of cow pats to watch for.

Some random pics of the village and beach area. The village is an easy 1 km walk from home with lots of nice scenery along the way. This is the off season and it rains a bit every other day or so. The temps this time of year are high 50's F at night and mid 60's F daytime. A few bad rain storms with high winds every now and then.  Most average US homes would not survive these storms well.  That's why houses here have 2 foot thick stone walls on older home and new homes are concrete. 99% of house roofs are large terrible-cotta tiles. There is also a nice seawall protected harbor for the fishermen and private boaters.
