A wild animal broke into the Mahomes' house.
Brittany Mahomes posted a video of herself and her NFL star husband, Patrick Mahomes, in her backyard. Instagram Stories On Thursday morning, a flock of black vultures was seen perched on a fence overlooking the family's backyard, while other vultures were seen flocking around the plaza.
“They're here every morning,” Brittany said, watching the footage. “It must just be a meeting place, because nothing's dead, they're just hanging out.”
The 33-year-old pregnant mother brought her eldest daughter, three-year-old Sterling Skye, to the scene and asked the toddler: “What's that?”
“Gross!” Sterling Skye yelled back.
The mother laughed and responded to her daughter's declaration, “Literally.”

The footage showed the raptors sunning themselves on the Mahomes' 50-yard football and soccer field, beyond the darkness of the woods in the distance. Mother and daughter stood safely on a balcony overlooking the scene. In the background, another child can be heard screaming in terror as his mother tries to calm him down.
The Cinereous Vulture, also known as the American Vulture, Mexican Vulture, Zopilote, Wolve and Gallinazo, is known to have a migratory route that stretches from the southeastern United States to Peru, central Chile and Uruguay in South America.
Mahomes' family home in Cass County, Missouri, is best known for its turkey vultures, a closely related species of black vulture, but this year the county has seen a large number of migratory black vultures.

On 2 March 2009, a flock of black vultures landed in the Pantanos de Villa (Marshes of Villa) National Reserve, 20 km south of Lima. Covering an area of around 400 hectares and home to 155 bird species (77 of which are migratory), Pantanos de Villa are linked to the Rimac River ecosystem and are currently threatened by the surrounding urbanisation and industrial development.

Black vultures have begun migrating further north into the Cass County area this summer, according to the county's local newspaper. Tribune TimesThe “highly aggressive” black vultures are known to prey on newborn calves and lambs, causing problems for local farmers, the newspaper reported last month.
Now they are encroaching on the county's most important Mahomes family property, desecrating the grounds they built from the ground up.
After Patrick signed a 10-year, $450 million contract with the Kansas City Chiefs in August 2020, he used $400,000 to purchase the 8-acre property. The couple married in March 2022, a year after Sterling Skye was born, and had a 1-year-old son, Patrick “Bronze” Lavon Mahomes III, in December of that year. The house was completed and move-in ready in February 2023. The house includes a football and soccer field with their last name written in black letters in the end zone. The field is now the Vultures' daily “hangout.”

Ominously, these black bird wildlife incursions came just days after the Chiefs' win over the Baltimore Ravens, denying Mahomes a chance to avenge last year's loss in the AFC Championship Game.
Now Mahomes will have to deal with those birds while preparing for the Chiefs' big game on Sunday against Joe Burrow and the rival Cincinnati Bengals, as Kansas City remains unbeaten following a Week 1 win and seeks to become the first team in NFL history to win three consecutive Super Bowls.
During an interview with Logan Paul on the “Impaulsive” podcast, Mahomes reaffirmed his belief that the Chiefs will achieve that goal again and said that's the expectation for his quarterback this year.
“Next year in New Orleans, we're going to do it again,” Mahomes declared. “Leave it on the table. We're going to do it again. I'm telling you right now.”
Not only that, Mahomes and the Chiefs offense may have to pull off a historic campaign while also implementing plays designed by Taylor Swift. The quarterback has been dating Mahomes' teammate Travis Kelce since last season, Swift previously said in an interview, Interview with NBC's Chris Simms, And the team said, “We might have to put one in.”
