I echo the others in saying that's a cool looking Vulture. Much different than the Turkey and Black Vultures we have here. Excellent shot Gwendolen!

Very cool vulture and a beautiful photo of him. I love vultures–any kind!

That is one of the coolest looking vultures I have ever seen Gwen! Excellent capture. Looking forward to IVAD 09!

Thanks, Gwen!
I didn't even know they existed.
Bookmarked the page and will check it further.
Thanks !

Vultures may not be good-looking birds, but they are an important part of our ecology. Great shot of the White-headed, Gwen.

Hope you'll get to see one one day Nicole. The Hungarian Falconers Club is supporting IVAD09, they have a website http://www.solymaszat.hu. Maybe they have tips.

That's one awesome shot!
I haven't seen a wild vulture anywhere yet.

A very interesting bird – and certainly very different from most of the pretty little birds that usually are posted on BPW! Nice photo!
