Vultures
Vultures — circling, waiting for death — often touch a scheming person bent on injuring you, who won't succeed unless you see the bird wounded or dead, with slander for a woman. The dream may ask where someone is hovering, patient for your weakness, and whether you can wound the predator's design before it descends.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for vultures, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of vultures, signifies that some scheming person is bent on injuring you, and will not succeed unless you see the vulture wounded, or dead.
For a woman to dream of a vulture, signifies that she will be overwhelmed with slander and gossip.
Fontaine, 1862
To dream of the vulture is unfortunate to all, except sick persons, to whom it foretells a speedy recovery.
