Description
Portrait of an American Black Vulture.
The Black Vulture is a highly social bird with fierce family loyalty. They are monogamous, share food with relatives and will feed their young for months after they've fledged.
They are quite large, standing about two feet tall (60 - 68 cm) with a wingspan close to 60 inches (137-150 cm). Mostly found in the southeastern parts of the United States but have been spotted as far as New England area and all over South America. Interestingly though, fossils have been found in Europe dating back to 34 million years ago.
