Turkey Vulture

Turkey Vulture

  • Large soaring bird.
  • Long wings and tail.
  • Body feathers entirely blackish-brown.
  • Red head mostly unfeathered.
Although it has an ugly, bare-skinned face, the Turkey Vulture is beautiful on the wing. Seldom does this graceful and talented bird flap its wings as it soars over large areas searching for carrion.
