Beware Of The Buzzards

OK, these birds are vultures, but down south we call them buzzards. Not only do they eat dead things they also eat rubber RV roofs. Last October while camped and fishing on Lake Degray in Arkansas the birds destroyed my roof. One buddy had a small hole in his roof, other buddy's roof was like mine. They ate 10 spots down the roof/wall edges. I traded the trailer and insurance check for a 2022 Rockwood Signature 8337RL

Sounds like a script for a horror movie! Your new trailer is really nice....has a metal roof?

Same type rubber roof. I was out fishing and was told another camper called the sheriff thinking that someone might be dead inside. Sheriff came and could not get in and called the rangers. the rangers saw my truck at boat ramp.

I have a problem with Buzzards on my home roof, I use a pellet rifle to scare them off since they are a protective species.
