The Black Vulture Chicks Then The Chick


The last day with the two Black Vulture chicks. The one injured by
the raccoon is on the left. Survivor boy is standing.


Lori trying to feed the injured chick.

Surviving chick has moved to the TOP of the barn
now. He's thinking about coming down in the above
pic ... and below is very content to just sit on his new
roost. Look at his curly baby fuzz!



Now, our beautiful Black Vulture chick is
branching. He flies to the top of the barn,
then over to the branches above and near it.

  2. What a perfect place for him to learn to fly.
    First, on the barn roof and then on to the branch. Soon he will join his relatives in the wide, wide world:) Well done, Lori, Well done!

  4. Well just look at him! You really do have a
    success story on him - sorry the other one didn't
    make it. Yes, he doesn't know just how lucky he
    is! Thanks to Lori and Kate! ♥

  5. Awesome! I have ever seen a baby vulture before. They are so cute, with their bad hair days! Is this in your yard?
