Definitely a Turkey Vulture.  Ugly *censored*s are all over on the NE Corner in my experience.

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

I have seen allot of turkey vulchers, but I have never seen any this large. This bird was as big or bigger than a golden eagle. That is why I took a picture because from the distance I was away it looked like a golden eagle. After looking online I see there is a large difference from a condor and the bird I have a picture of.

Oh, not quite! Golden eagles get much bigger than turkey vultures.

I know from first hand experience (and my hands have felt the talons from a golden eagle - extremely rare and painful experience).

Then there is google to reaffirm what I am saying.
