Beauty is our imprinted ambassador Turkey Vulture, that was confiscated by U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service after she was kept illegally as a pet for the first 5 years of her life. As you can tell, she is very inquisitive and always wants to know what is going on. She hopped out of her water to investigate the camera recording her. #raptors #turkeyvulture #birdsofprey #hawksaloft | Hawks Aloft, Inc.

Veronica’s just swooping in to say, “Hello!” 👋 Turkey vultures possess a wingspan of up to 5 feet 10 inches. Are you taller than a turkey vulture’s wings are wide? Alt-text: Veronica the turkey vulture flies through her habitat in this reel. She flaps her way down from perch to perch until she settles at our eye level. | Santa Barbara Zoo
