Turkey
Vulture
Cathartes

|
 |
| This species is a very common resident
throughout the region, though they tend to be less common at
the higher altitudes. In winter, large numbers migrate down
from further north and it is common to see big groups of many
hundreds of birds during migration. There are often hawks mixed
in with these migrating flocks, though the Turkey vultures tend
to migrate more through the lowlands and the hawks tend to migrate
more through the hilly areas. |
