MILWAUKEE - Here's something you wouldn't expect to see when you walk into work. But then again, it was Earth Day when a maintenance team at Rockwell Automation in Milwaukee stumbled upon a turkey vulture in one of their offices last week.
The workers found the vulture sitting on a cubicle. Somehow, this bird with a six-foot wingspan made its way into the building. The vulture was stressed and unable to find her way out.
