I just realized you have already been posting to the mission...thank you! (I do include vultures!). ;-)
These guys are one of my favorite birds! Great series! You've got quite a collection of raptor spottings! I've created a mission for all Raptors of North America, and I'd love you to add your spottings. The mission does include New World Vultures, and extends to the southern border of Panama. Your spottings would be a great addition to the mission! http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8627...
lovely pics of one of my fav birds!
Just FYI, technically the term buzzard is for old world hawks in the buteo family, it was brought over with European settlers and somehow got tagged to our vultures.
