By now the lioness has a nearly full belly. She is tired of fighting off the vultures and slinks off to sleep. Seeing their opportunity, the vultures swoop down enmass.

I wish the bird on the right wasn't there. Watch the next image in the series to see what is left of the zebra after only 15 minutes' work by 25 vultures.

The vulture on top is really cool. Was it possible to not crop off the right side of the zebra? Thanks for sharing!

I could have kept the right side of the zebra but I instead cropped out some vultures that cluttered the composition.
