Tomasina the Turkey Vulture

Tomasina

Turkey Vulture

Tomasina came to the Center in 2001, after being hit by an automobile in the CT Farmington Valley. Tomasina sustained a serious wing injury that required a partial amputation and she was unable to be released back into the wild.

Tomasina now spends her days sunbathing with outstretched wings in the morning and enjoys a large meal in the afternoon. The Center is also home to the young Black Vulture, Floki, that is also permanently injured. Together they bask in the sun and provide each other with much need companionship.
