Yo1 Posted June 5, 2020 Report Share Posted June 5, 2020 It's a black vulture. I have about 8 in my neighborhood where they roost for the night. They are not birds of prey. They are primarily scavengers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happyjillin Posted June 5, 2020 Report Share Posted June 5, 2020 Yes black vulture and they do sometimes attack small and helpless animals as prey. Because of this and their penchant for attacking newborn livestock ,farmers in several areas in the USA where they are also indigenous can get permits to kill them.
