These guys are new to the Alligator Farm in St. Augustine, FL. I could'nt get them both in the frame. They have an eight foot wingspan. They are Cape Griffon Vultures from West Africa.

WOW, they sure are big!!

How do they keep them from flying away?? I see the foot is banded.

8 feet - pretty amazing.

Wouldn't want to see those circling overhead in the desert.....
