[cobirds] Black Vulture Update

The Black Vulture is still present and I saw it today 12/23 at 2:30 pm in the same location. To see it, go to Del Norte and find the junction of CR 14 and Hwy 160. From here go 5.0 miles up Pinos Creek and watch for the bird on the fence. Today it was on the deer carcass and then flew up to the fence. It is very predictable right now. But, I do think this bird is ill. It has lost a lot of breast feathers and is very approachable. I am wondering if lead poisoning might be a factor. Hoping the best for this bird and see it if you can.
