I encountered a gang of half grown vultures while driving. Nothing worse than teenage vultures. Lol.
In the crowded suburban/urban street on live on there was a dead rabbit on the road, and about eight or teen buzzards were gathered eating it. I noticed that there were black birds, about the size of adult crows, strutting around the patch of street around the carrion in front of my car. But as I stopped (to keep THEM from becoming carrion) I noticed that they were NOT actually crows, but half sized vultures. And they were a mixed crowd of both of the two main species in north america: black headed vultures, and turkey vultures (the ones with the naked heads with bright red skin). Honked my horn...and honked again...and then drove slow...and they all finally flew away from the path of my car.
When you see vultures, you usually see them in the distant sky circling around on a thermal. And you rarely see both of the two species intermingled like that. Never seen half grown ones before, and never seen any of any age that up close and personal before.
That's cool. I have never seen young vultures.
