On nice days during this deep winter time, the vultures get short jaunts outside to enjoy the sun and snow. Yolo the king vulture has a lot of fun exploring this bizarre winter world, then enjoys foot and face warming as soon as he returns inside.

A closeup of a young king vulture standing on a branch

They grow up so fast!
Yolo has lost his floofy baby pantaloons and almost all his baby fluff now. It will take him about 4-5 years to get his full, bright, adult king vulture colors but he looks different almost every day! 🪶

With vulture migration peaking locally right now, gotta give these two some love. We’ll see thousands of Turkey Vultures pass by our local hawk watch in spring, but maybe only 1 or 2 Black Vultures.

Avengers Assemble movie poster altered to be about vultures. It now says 'Scavengers Scassemble", and the Hulk has an Andean Condor head, Hawkeye has a Palm nut vulture head, Iron Man has a Turkey vulture head, Nick Fury has a Cape vulture head, Black Widow has a Cinereous vulture head, Captain America has a California condor head, and Thor has a Bearded vulture head.

Scavengers Scassemble!
A meme I made for the Wild Green Memes charity battle over on facebook, that I'm rather proud of.

🎃 Our vultures are getting into the Halloween spirit! 🎃
It's hard to tell who had more fun carving and playing with pumpkins this year, our staff or our birds. Who knew vultures could be such talented artists? 🧡🖤 #VultureArt #LoveVultures #Halloween2024 🪶

A turkey vulture with her back to the viewer, wings spread. Sun on her feathers shows off their iridescent color.

Turkey vultures are gorgeous birds! Their brown coloration is a beautiful mix of iridescent bronze, golds, and blues, and their wide wings are perfectly built for effortless soaring. #lovevultures 🪶

Bath pants, bath dance!
It's been super rainy here lately and Sev is thrilled, dancin' in the rain is one of his favorite pasttimes. 🪶 #lovevultures

Two black vultures on a wood perch. One is sitting up, the other is lying down.

Two very cute kids ready for bed. They sleep flat like pancakes, snuggled together.
