Hi Ann and thanks so much for your comment! Vultures are also among my favorite birds and I have been fascinated by them for all of my birding years. I am currently in the process of doing a Vlog on a pair of nesting Black Vultures here in Auburn, Alabama. At this point, we are up to a hatch of the remaining egg which should be imminent. The link to the Vlog and its episodes thus far is https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL079x2fsPyFGBe4LyRUxSAkNsTGUyMmw9
If you have any references on Black Vulture reproductive and nesting practices, I would be most interested. I have really enjoyed your photos, particularly the recent ones at Tuscarora and York County. Keep up the great work!
