In Short – Bird-watchers at Blue Hills Reservation may spot the rare worm-eating warbler, but they're more likely to see flocks of turkey vultures, part of nature's cleanup crew. The turkey vulture, a large bird with a big wing span, is often mistaken for the bald eagle. In flight, the bald eagle has a massive head and wings flat on the horizontal. The turkey vulture has a small head and wings inclined toward each other.
