These hardly taste like turkey at all!

So I've heard.

Agree - I’ve always been fascinated by these birds mastery of staying aloft with minimal wing flapping. Nice pic.

Black vultures have a dark grey/blackish head, but still unfeathered like the turkey vulture. If the head is feathered, it is likely an eagle.

Black vultures are also a bit larger than turkey vultures, but not up to condor size or anything.

not a turkey vulture. I think perhaps a golden eagle. turkey vultures end flight feathers are kind of like little fingers.

Turkey vultures have those weird looking heads. (http://www.birdspix.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/IMG_2937ed-cr.jpg)">http://www.birdspix.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/IMG_2937ed-cr.jpg)

Can't exactly tell from this angle, though.
