Prince Vulture
Juvenile King Vulture Sometimes during a birding trip I’ve found what most people think are common situations, but many times the result is extraordinary. I visited Ceibal this Tuesday and when I was in the entrance road my friend David saw some vultures on the ground, he told me they were Turkey Vultures but I noticed one really different to the others, immediately I thought “That’s a Juvenile King Vulture!” David took his camera and got some nice pictures and I armed my scope and digiscoped some like this one. I haven’t had a chance to see one like this and it is great to observe the big differences between a juvenile and an adult. It means that if an older one is a King Vulture a young one is a Prince Vulture, isn’t it?
