California Condor in the Grand Canyon by Paul Domski.

Hint: enlarge (click) and look at the length of its head proportional to the rest.

  1. Yeah, REALLY different! I sure would like to see a wild condor someday……In distinguishing between Golden eagles and Turkey Buzzards in the Southern Appalachians(where we DO get the occaisional Golden) that were high up and harder to tell apart, I noticed Goldens tend to hold their wings much straighter, whereas Turkey Vultures almost always have that distinctive "tilt" to their wing set. Also, the Golden eagles usually didn't hang around–always seemed to be heading somewhere in a direct line. Bald eagles(the adults, anyway) are EASY! Anything THAT big with that unmistakable white head can't be anything else! At least in North America!….L.B.
