First BLACK VULTURE Chick is Born

Very exiciting evening here. Got lucky and happened to get pictures of the first Black Vulture chick which is as you can see still very new.  Thank God for the timing. The second egg, which I thought had pips on it, may or may not. The eggs do have splotches on them before hatching and this is my first vulture hatching!

  3. Excellent pics Lori! Vulture chicks should get
    support just as all other chicks. They sort of
    have a 'mystic' look! That adult looks like
    Megan's Vincent! lol

  10. Lori I didn't think I would like vultures. You have with these pictures. Changed my mind!! They are neat birds in their own way. Having
    their own thing of being "cute" when little.
    Never thought I would say a vulture is cute..
    well the little ones usually are. Thank you ( :
