Their 'nest' wasn't much more than an indentation in some straw that was on the floor. Apparently the parents put the eggs on topmof their feet when they were nesting.
For the first fourteen days the parents feed them liquid (yeah, regurgitated supper) for UP TO twenty times a day! Busy virds!

Then, approximately two weeks the babies start getting sold food (yeah, carcass delight).

The babies are feed in the nest for approximately three to four months. And once they are out of the "nest" they are still feed for approximately a totalmof eight months. Relatives help out too.

They are very social.

Their scent abilities are not as great as the Turkey Vultures, so often you see them soaring ABOVE the Buzzards and then following them to the food.

All this according to Google, so we'll see if Baby Vivian and Baby Valentino follow the guidelines set out in Google!

And yes Tina, Inhad the privilege of seeing a Condor in flight once....such a true privilege!!

Apparently baby Vultures think if they can see you....you ca ts see them! Vivian and Velentino playing a little hide and seek from me! 🙂

All hunched over trying to make their selves small and invisible!

How often do you get to see a cute little Baby Vulture Butt up c@pse and personal?? See the black latches? That's actually feathers starting to fill in. You can see it fairly clearly right over his/her leg.

I thinknif you listen closely you canhear the baby give me a little "hiss". So precious!! What I didn't get on film was, right before this, they.both were NOT hiding and were facing me as opened the dorr. Their Mom/Dad was up in the rafters watching me. In a couple of seconds she gave an adult hiss and the bavies scampered to their "hiding" positions.
