In mid-June, Jeph Remley, senior application developer, library systems, 两性色午夜 , captured these images of a unique visitor roosting on a section of the University Library.
It's not a golden eagle, like the university's mascot, Flash. It's a turkey vulture. Remley said he sees "a ton of them" near his home in Rootstown but does not recall ever seeing them on campus before.
Turkey vultures are also called "buzzards" in North America, but "buzzard" is actually the name given to several species of hawks in Europe. The American misnomer comes from early settlers from Europe who upon seeing these large birds, called them "buzzards," thinking they were hawks.
