The most disgusting thing I saw in Austin, Texas

Bear with me people, I'm coming slowly back to blogging
sOoOoOoooo ...
I am walking (either up or down) 6th Street on my way to finding hypo-allergenic food at that growing business bent into becoming the walmart of alternative foods, Whole Foods.
I'm way past Congress Avenue, maybe in the vicinity of Las Nueces, when I see this huge bird eating the rotting carcass of what smells like a dead rat. Ewwww!
First thought that pops into my mind after ewwwwwing : Wow, that looks like a turkey, but it's eating what smells like a dead rat?
Well, what do you know. Texas has a bird they call a turkey vulture.
UPDATE :
Just wanted to clarify that the bird was not disgusting. Seeing the bird eat a piece of putrescent and odoriferous carrion was the most disgusting I've ever seen.
