Along the Roads of Nod

 A few sights along the roads of Nod of late:



This poor turkey vulture, a carrion feeder during life, has now become carrion itself.

Some still believe that the sight of turkey vultures is an omen of impending death.
In the U.S., it is illegal to take, kill, or possess turkey vultures, their eggs, and any body parts - including their feathers.
Violations are punishable by fines of up to $100,000 for individuals ($200,000 for organizations) and/or up to one year in prison.

Sight 2:

I have no words for this, but it isn't everyday one sees a car burning on the side of the road.  (Thankfully, no one was injured.)

Sight 3:
{Bobcat, a/k/a lynx, a/k/a wildcat, a/k/a I'm-glad-it-wasn't-the-cougar??}

And then there's this:


Yesterday my mailbox was perfectly fine.
Today it obviously isn't.


Seriously??

...Anyway, Happy October my friends.
Let the shenanigans and spooking begin in earnest.
