Character Corner- Beaky Buzzard

This character is a small gem of the Looney Tunes cast. His name is Beaky Buzzard, though he resembles a vulture or condor. He first appeared in Bugs Bunny Gets The Boid, an average Bugs cartoon. He's shown as the runt of his litter, being dumb and lazy. Beaky is very incompetent, repeatably saying, "Nope, nope, nope." The bird was based on Edgar Bergen's puppet, Mortimer Snerd. Both the puppet and buzzard share speech patterns and personalities. No matter what he does, Beaky never captures Bugs, like the other villains. This character is actually one of the few people not voiced by Mel Blanc. Instead he is done by Kent Rogers. Beaky is now forced into small cameos, instead of main character work. In the small Looney Tune comics, he usually paired up with Henery Hawk. He also made a few appearances on Tiny Toons, as the mentor of a condor. He's also been in Looney Tunes Back In Action and Space Jam. Well, this character is defiantly one of my favorites. He is a good, hapless villain who should be seen more often.
