Many years ago, at the age of 15, me and a buddy of mine used to climb the bluffs of the st Crox river and on one occasion we can came across a small cave, after some - YOU GO FIRSTS LOL well I went in first, didn't make it far when I saw something MOVE! By the light of my BIC LIGHTER and backed out quicker then sh t! After some time my buddy sought he'd try... Well he can back out just as fast , but he saw what it was... A TURKEY VULTURE! Sitting on a nest! Heck I was sure it was a Big BOB CAT, by the LITTLE spot of urine on my pants... Well my buddy Dad had a chicken farm and had an egg incubator and he wanted an egg... So we came up with a PLAN LOL And it was for the two of us to get inside this small cave, maybe 12 feet in diameter by 4 foot high, he would distract the thing and I'd grab an egg... Well like a lot of good plans, 15 seconds into it and it was all improvisation, screaming and hollering in a poorly lit cave I took my jacked off and was able to cover this huge bird with it, squeezing it around the bird with its head just barely sticking out, both of us screaming like manly school girls, well he grabbed an egg and said GOT IT And headed out of the cave.... Crap now I'm so scarded of letting go and turning my back side to it as I crawl out that I just froze... For a second... Till I learned what a TURKEY VULTURE self defense was... VOMITING!!! Given what they eat... It was the worst SMELL EVER!! All over me and my jacket, but it made it clear I needed to drop this thing and crawl out as fast as I could and I did without getting pecked in my "bottem"
Outside in the light that vomit was really making me SICK!! Even thinking about it now

my buddy was half way down the bluff when I started down, stinking, and thinking I was going to BARF anytime we made it back to our bikes and we both headed back home.
The EGG, well it never hatched... Not sure why... But that was the LAST TIME I ever went into a cave, 35+ years later it's not likely that I EVER WILL... Just a story of two " not so bright farm kids" ahhh what trouble we could find before there was the INTERNET;-)
