Paraglider and black vulture chilling
(via)
#Previous tags! ^#Also Rafael is a good friend of Uru’s caretaker#Btw their caretaker is paraglider and tour guide Israel Mendes (@raelserradaaratanhaa on IG)#Uru is still in their hatch year (aka a baby)#iirc Uru was rescued as a nestling by the Environmental Police after somebody threw them in a garbage can/dumpster???#And a biologist requested for Israel to take Uru in#(Which probably means the bird imprinted on humans while in rehab care and thus was nonreleasable)#(Vultures imprint and/or become human-habituated very easily as babies because they're extremely intelligent and perceptive)#(+ also highly social & familial; nurture/parental care & socialization are super important for a vulture's development & learning)#Anyway Israel is legally licensed/permitted by the Brazilian Environmental Police to care for Uru#(Vultures are protected by Brazilian law so a(n) license/permit/authorization by environmental authorities is required to care for one)#Lastly: This video is of a (relatively) new and unique practice known as Parahawking#Which is basically combining falconry/b.o.p. free flight with paragliding#(Btw parahawking is done with captive-raised and human-habituated + tame + trained birds)#(Smaller) Vulture species are relatively popular in parahawking because of their flight style and sociability + high intelligence#(Even outside of this vultures in the wild will often join paragliders and hang gliders in thermals)#Parahawking is also physically AND mentally healthy for vultures who live in captivity#As it encourages natural behaviors (soaring etc.) and ensures that they maintain healthy and strong wings and flight muscles#Parahawking#Birds#Birds of prey#Raptors#Vultures#Accipitrimorphae#American Vultures#New World vultures#Cathartids#Cathartidae#Black Vulture#Coragyps atratus

Black Vultures (Coragyps atratus). There was a deer carcass nearby, drawing about 40 vultures to the same spot. It smelled awful, but they seemed to... get a kick out of it. The circle of life.

If an animal dies on the plain the Gallinazo commences the feast, and then the two species of Polyborus pick the bones clean.

Black vulture (Coragyps atratus), March 2023
Central PA
Always a treat to see! They're much less common in SW PA, so when I can see one elsewhere it's very exciting!

Black vulture by pe_ha45 Via Flickr: The black vulture is a bird in the New World vulture family whose range extends from the southeastern United States to Central Chile and Uruguay in South America. Although a common and widespread species, it has a somewhat more restricted distribution than its compatriot, the turkey vulture, which breeds well into Canada and south to Tierra del Fuego (Wikipedia)
