condor or vulture

    I first thought these were vultures but white spots on the sides of two of them could be tags. Condors or vultures?

    The three birds in the middle of the photo are condors. We have a new section in the field guide to help tell the difference between condors and vultures with several additional photos that might be helpful. The one feeding is an adult, the one in the back is a juvenile and then you can't see the head to tell if the third one is an adult or juvenile (but the tag means that it is certainly another condor). Thanks so much for your help with Condor Watch!
