These Black Vultures were being very cooperative. How often does that happen 😃.


I recently learned that the Black Vultures are actually limited in their range. In the US it’s primarily the Southeast. I had assumed they were similar to a Turkey Vulture, which is world wide.

I didn’t know their range was limited, but we’ve only ever seen them in the Southeast. Being so used to Turkey Vultures, I had to doubletake to make sure I was seeing what I thought I saw.
I never realized it either until a few days ago. Turkey Vultures are ‘old world’ birds, living most anywhere. Black Vultures are not. Outside the US they are in Mexico and parts of Central and South America. 😳
Love these images
Thank you. A bird not exactly universally loved.
Unfortunately, we don’t have these amazing species. Your photos of them are incredible!!!
A little cold for them LOL. Thanks.
