Great stuff. Seeing large birds like this is always special regardless of if they are rare or common.
Couldn't agree more! They are majestic in their own way and it is always lovely to see them
oh my god . . . a youtube channel that does educational videos on birds in video essay format? sign me tf up
Birds and Jazz? I'm in!!!
Subscribed!
So after watching I must say this is the most underrated nature channel on youtube, can't believe I've never seen your channel before.
Ahaha you are too kind. I love birds and jazz so I said why not combine the two! :D Thanks so much for saying all of those kind words, it means so much to me that you think that. Have a wonderful rest of your week my friend and take care :)
This is like a cosmic gumbo between birds and educational videos. GREAT STUFF!
Lovely footage of Turkey vulture with good info.. like it.
I'm glad you enjoyed both the footage and the info my friend. Took a lot of time to produce so it means a lot :)
I work as an educator at a Zoo with a Turkey Vulture. One of her wings was broken and never healed properly, so she's a little clumsy when it comes to getting around. She's my favorite bird to work with, but definitely the most unpredictable and dangerous. I've had to fend her off on more than one occasion and she has bitten other keepers.
She's still my favorite to work with, though. 🥰 Her interactions with enrichment are always great, and she seems to enjoy being chatted to while I clean. They're such intelligent birds.
Wow, what a cool occupation! Aw man I'm sorry to hear her wing broke... I'm glad she's able to survive at the zoo and able to have you as a friend. I bet she is, she probably went through some trauma with her injury. I hope she ends up becoming more friendly towards the other keepers. Thanks for telling me your story :)
It because it understands what you are saying she not a bird she a transcross of the ethics of transhumanism symbolically she will make deals and agreements when it comes to her food you bring her a dead form and she will hold off doing what she does if it feel s like one side is benefiting
I'm new to your channel but admire the couple of videos I've seen so far. I love bird watching at my feeder so I'll be looking for many more you've done. Please keep up your high quality work 👍😊
Thank you so much, Barbara, that means a lot to me! :)) Yayyy I'm glad to have you coming back, I'll do my best to keep it up! It's been a little slow recently but I'm trying to release a new video very soon
Let me tell you, seeing 20 of these things perched around a Black Angus every goddamn day at work is...unnerving.
Haha yeah I don't blame you they can be quite intimidating in groups. It's no wonder old western movies had the stylistic choice of having them circling people
I saw one a few weeks ago. I was driving home from work and I remember thinking, "What's a bigass Turkey doing by the side of the road?" Which I live in a really metropolitan area so I was suprised when I saw it, but the closer I drove by it I realized it was a freaking Vulture! I'll never forget what it looks like, It was the first time I've ever seen one. What's odd to me is that it was in the city. After watching this video, I'm certain it was a Turkey Vulture.
Turkey vultures are very grateful when they are flying in the sky.
Beautiful footage my friend 👍🏼 thanks for the information too..
Thank you very much my friend! It's always my pleasure. I really appreciate you coming by and saying such kind words :D
Beautiful
I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
There’s a tree here near down the street where I live. I see them every day flying in circles and breaking off on packs so this is interesting!
Excellent Upload !
Really enjoy to watch it !
Thank you! Cheers!
I'm new to your channel. I very much appreciate your work. It was very informative and I liked the music! Thank You
Great video, Jay! Clear, concise, well-narrated. This popped up on my husband's YT recommends, and I'm glad. Subscribed and belled. The only thing I wanted to know a little more about was raising young and maturation. Thanks!
Truly an enjoyable movie, J. Great experiences. Thanks for sharing. A good start to the weekend.
Wish you a pleasant weekend.
Best regards, Knut.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for coming by and saying such kind words. I really appreciate you. I wish you a nice weekend as well, and happy birding! :D
Thank you. ◕‿◕
Wow amazing upload, thanks for sharing 💜💙❤
Thanks for sharing, cool and informative video ✨
Hey Henrik! It's my pleasure, I'm glad you found it informative! Thanks for watching and I hope you have a nice day my new friend :)
Lovely bird, great visuals and overview my friend, thank you for sharing, Like 24.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed and I appreciate the like :)
Beautiful presentation. I am fascinated with these awesome birds. Here in Southern NJ, we have both Turkey Vultures and Black Vultures. In the nearby borough of Wenonah, vultures congregate on such a grand scale that the borough even came up with an annual "vulture fest". BTW, Your background music and voice are wonderfully tranquilizing. Please keep the good jazz and bird videos coming.
Came here expecting to hear their call like it says in the title. Guess not.
Hello, I'm sorry if this wasn't the video you were looking for. This was meant to be a video essay going over all of the traits of the Turkey Vulture. At 3:04 I clearly state what you need to know about the Turkey Vultures call. There are many videos out there where you can just listen to certain noises the turkey vulture makes, but this is something different, evident by the title and length. But I will take your concern into account. I've already started importing the audio tracks of birds into videos whenever I have "call" in the title. Have a good day.
Nice and relaxing video!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wonderful footage..thanks for sharing the information 👍
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your lovely visit and kind words. It's always my pleasure to share and I'm glad you enjoyed it :D

No problem! Thank you very much for watching and I hope you enjoy this American video. I love the culture of Japan a lot :)
I love them! They hang out everywhere I go - along with the ravens that don’t like them very much!
Nice and relaxing video... Thanks, J.

Beautiful, Nice sharing friend! . I will always support you
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your support :)
Great video, with helpful info! I realize that I mostly see them flying, and I don’t really notice them perched or nesting, at least in our area. Thanks for sharing all the places they might nest. 👌👍👍👍 Going to check out the Black Vultures now. 😉
Thank you so much for your lovely comment my friend! I'm glad you found the info helpful. I'm glad you get to see them a lot and I don't see them nesting either. It's my pleasure and thank you again for watching so many of my videos :)))
@@J_Birds You’re welcome- thanks for responding to comments! I’m enjoying you videos and am happy to support your channel! 😉👍

Nice one. Loved this content. Keep sharing. Like
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed and and I really appreciate your kind words :)
Very unusual looking bird, thanks for sharing.
I agree, they can be quite unappealing sometimes. But I guess that's what you look like when you eat dead animals haha. Thank you for the lovely visit and kind words my friend :D
I remember seeing black and turkey vultures flying low and even feeding together, and I used to think they were the male and female of the same species. Very interesting and beautiful birds, remind me of my childhood.
Awesome ❤️
Thanks for sharing
It's my pleasure! Thanks for watching :)
wow interesting
learn something new from this video
thanks for sharing
i will watch others video too
Thank you so much! My goal with these videos is for someone to learn something new, so I'm glad I could do that for you. It's always my pleasure to share and it means a lot that you want to see more. And a subscription is always appreciated if you'd like! By the way, you have a beautiful family :)
Very nice
Nice video. Nice job explaining all that information about turkey vultures. It made the information really easy to understand and process. Another cool fact about turkey vultures is that they can vomit stomach acid and food when they feel threatened.
Fantastic and amazing
Thanks a lot 😊
@@J_Birds you welcome
Awesome footage and extremely enlightening. Full support my friend.👍🔔👌
Full view always. 👍
Thank you so much! You are very kind and I really appreciate your comment. Take care and have a good one :)
Best contents
Here your new subscriber.....
Thank you for telling me the history of pigeons.
Pigeons have long been said to be a symbol of peace in my country. Therefore, Japanese people do not have a habit of eating pigeons. However, in urban areas, the number of pigeons is increasing and pigeon pollution is occurring, but it is prohibited to capture them. Pigeon pollution in urban areas is always a difficult problem.
Thank you. Have a nice weekend.
It's my pleasure! It's mostly the American history so I apologize for being a little biased. That is so amazing how they represent such a meaningful message in your country as well. However, that's unfortunate that they are becoming a problem now. I hope they can still be respected and not end up like they do here in the US
i cant get enough of these dudes
beautiful video
Thank you! Cheers!
Noteworthy! Thank you for this interesting video! Thank you very much my friend for sharing, stay connected, please 💓💗💓.
It’s my pleasure! Thanks for watching and saying all of that. You are very kind and I’m glad to have you as a friend. I’d love to stay connected :)
Nice video 🌷👍
Thank you very much!
May you and your subscribers be blessed with health, wealth, and happiness.
Thank you so so much! I really appreciate your kind words and that's just what I needed :)) I wish the same for you as well!
Awesome👍
Thanks 🤗
Great video - how long do they live?
I love turkey vultures. I think its super cute the way they hop walk.
Thank for teaching me😀
No problem my new friend :)) Thank you for watching and leaving such a lovely comment! I hope you have a wonderful day!
I can open my arms into a wide V and a turkey vulture will come down and sail circles above me, last summer a turkey vulture sat on fence around a swimming pool, he stretched his wings and was relaxing in sun. He stayed at least 10 minutes. I'm pretty sure this is the one who will come down and circle my head. His partner is always nearby but stays higher. The white claws and beak are beautiful. He will land on power pole and look down at me spreading his wings open. I consider him a friend.
Beautiful big birds.
They really are beautiful in their own way. Thank you so much for the lovely visit to the channel, you are welcome any time :)
J Bird, I am kind of confused on something about these red headed turkey buzzards we have here in Ohio. I live north of Dayton out in the country. Across the road from me is 200+ acres that was used to grown corn every year. A couple years ago the property was sold to a cattle rancher. Now there are cattle on the 200+ acres but lots of turkey buzzards have seemed to taken over the area once the cattle moved in.
Here is what I am not understanding. One early morning I saw a raccoon digging for worms ( which Ive seen many times before) then suddenly a turkey buzzard swooped down low and grabbed the raccoon. As the turkey buzzard went flying upwards I could see the raccon swing his legs trying to get away, the buzzard dropped him, I estimate approx. 40-50 feet and the raccoon hit the ground hard. Then the buzzard came back and start eating his kill.
Well, that was not the first kill I witnessed.
A buzzard got a hold of a rabbit in my backyard. Same thing, grabbed the rabbit and dropped it. Now I am worried..... because I have a Yorkie dog that weighs 6 pounds. It got to the point that when my dog goes outside these turkey buzzards come from no where, circle and swoop down low toward my dog. I literally have to chase them off. I asked my veterinarian about this situatiion and I was told that turkey buzzards will in fact kill for food. I went back to the same veterinarian office and the owner had retired shortly after I asked about this. The new veterinarian told me turkey buzzards dont kill and do not eat dogs. When I tell people what I seen, they do not believe it. I always thought buzzards only eat dead animals and do not hunt and kill for food.
When it suffering before it death it adrenalin rises and makes for tastier dining for the turkey. That why they dropped the prey you witnissed
@@juliussanchez3249 - So you are saying that turkey buzzards do catch and kill prey.
Yet some veterinarians will tell me that turkey buzzards feets are not designed to grab prey in flight. I am questioning how much knowledge veterinarians have. Then again te myth has always been that buzzards only eat dead animals
I really enjoyed the video, so colourful ! Support and greetings from Spain. Lets stay connected...
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed! Spain is such a beautiful place and I can’t wait to visit one day. Greetings from Texas, USA and I’d love to stay connected :)
@@J_Birds Sounds good to me !
Wow..good,nice sharring
Thank you so much 🙂
Do they only scavenge, or can they kill small rodents? When I capture a rat, mouse, or gopher, I try to put them where the Turkey Vultures can see them. They are always hovering over my property but never seem to find the treats...
Like, fantastic video edition. New friend here.
Thank you so much! It's nice to meet you my new friend. I hope you have a good one and stay a while :)
Beautiful video ⚘👍⚘👍🇲🇦🕊🇲🇦
Thank you very much!
WoW that so big
do vultures go after chickens?
omg a turkey vulture asked you to do a video on them
I saw three of these dining on a roadkill possum 1 block from my house a week ago. I was driving home from work and there they stood. Huge birds! They briefly flew up when I got close but returned as soon as I passed the spot. They do resemble a Turkey somewhat, but we have wild Turkeys around as well and I instantly knew these were vultures and not Turkeys. Some people think they are ugly (because of the head) I find them majestic. Plus, they keep the area free of rotting dead animals far better than the road service around here.
I have noticed turkey vultures intentionally colliding in the air. Do you know why they do this?
Hm that's very interesting... personally, I've never seen that myself or never heard of that happening, but it is most likely accidents or meant as acts of aggression to keep other birds away. I tried looking it up and there seems to be no reports of this happening so it's any ones guess
Would have been nice to know their hunting patterns. We keep losing our chickens to them. What’s the best way to prevent?
Amazing Vidio 👌🌹❤️💕💕
Wow what an amazing sighting I saw a Turkey but never Turkey vultures
Hi there! Thank you so much for checking out my channel I really appreciate it! I'm glad you got to learn a little bit about a new bird then :) have a nice day my friend
nice sharing new subscriber💗💗
Thanks for subbing!
VERY NOICE
THANK YOU SO MUCH I REALLY APPRECIATE THAT :D
I had a Turkey vulture with a broken wing rescued from my place today. I was wondering if they mated for life. Im hoping this specimen was too young to be mated. Id feel like a cad if I arranged the kidnapping (however necessary) of a bird's mate. If it survives, the rescue folks will release it here. Thank god for Gold country wildlife rescue. fingers crossed.
I was waiting to hear The Sound they make Lol
Show de bola tmj amigão like esmagado 👍
i seen one yesterday up close for the first time ever
That's awesome! They are really interesting looking huh?
@@J_Birds yes it was in front of my house after a dead groundhog
I just moved to Tennessee and they are ALL OVER my property, i was next to a park the other day and I saw a group and my wife saw a mother was eating a carcass and feeding it to their 2 babies, I wish I saw it. I have always been obsessed with vultures, they are like nature's waste management.
keep a healthy spirit always support each other
Thank you so much I hope you do the same. I will do my best
Hamesha khush raho my friend 👌🙏🏼🙋.... ....

Haha THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!! I love your enthusiasm lol, take care and have an amazing day :)
Hey do you know what it means when a turkey vulture comes flying towards you face to face to fly around you multiple times and feel this invigorating wind force between you two. Then you ask god what was that and to clarify if that was god like with Francis of assissi then the vulture flew into a tree bark on the Caribbean coast I was walking along, and looked back, tilted his head back and down and lifted his left wing. I have a military project for my Garifuna village and crazy stuff happened right after that where I’m lucky to be alive and ok. After it raised its wing it flew and landed on a palm tree while keeping eye contact with me as I kept walking. What does that mean? Do you think it was a mechanical bird with my competition trying to plan a way to make me say something that sounds sick to them but totally normal in our world and culture.
But with the amount of cruelty and materialism breeded in the suspicious people of course no one will have faith and will say it’s craY to talk about god
I love turkey vultures we have roost about 50 yds from our house there routinely 50 or so just hanging for a majority of the day at night they go home...where ever that is..
This is a dumb question because I see they’re flying in the video but my cousin and I have a debate about turkey vultures. He says they can’t actually fly and climb.. yes climb trees and then glide around. I beg to differ so I guess I’ll ask here lol
Do about griffon valture
Why do I see these flying high in Maine but never have seen one even remotely terrestrially?
I seen 1 in Westland Michigan going for some road kill
The Kettle flight pattern name was lovely. What about that tongue? That is unusual, not like a turkey :)
A turkey vulture was soaring over my house, looking for something on my front yard. It was perching on the roof of my neighbor's house across the street. Next thing I know, it's flying in a circle, slowly soaring down until it landed on my front yard. I never figured out what it was looking for, though.
Wow what a very interesting occurrence, maybe there was something small that it could smell but I honestly can't explain that. Glad you were able to see this cool bird though!
wow
Thank youuu :)
We noticed the smell of an animal carcass in the woods just behind the back yard. Sure enough, just today I saw a turkey vulture swooping into the yard and perch on a dead tree. I'm guessing the carcass will be gone in a few days, whatever it is.
