I've got such a soft spot for vultures, even though I've got nasty scars from them! They do such an important job for the enviroment. One of my favourite birds I've worked with was an old world vulture who loved spray baths and would stand meaningfully on her stump and give me a very pointed stare until I sprayed her down. Black vultures, who are in the same family as turkey vultures, have been seen in the wild befriending crested caracara, there's some amazing photos online of the vultures allopreening the caracara!
Beautiful creature, grows so fast, lovely.
Amazing, totally obsessed with Vultures. Lovely update on your new little one ☺️
Cheers! He’s certainly coming along well
