Digital painting of a bearded vulture from the chest up, but instead of the usual ruff of orange feathers surrounding its black and white face, it also has reddish-purple iris petals flowing outward from its head.

Birds called "vultures" belong to three separate groups, one found in the Americas and two in Afro-Eurasia. But just over 12,000 years ago some "Afro-Eurasian" vultures lived in N.

A mix of Black Vultures & Turkey Vultures. Eating a ham bone i put out for an Opossum in my yard a few years ago. So many started showing up, i had to throw away the ham bone. Sorry lunch over.
The *best* kind of vultures are of course lammergeiers. They eat bones you know! #internationalVultureDay
