Himalayan Vulture

The Himalayan vulture is the second-largest Old World vulture after the cinereous vulture, and one of the world's largest true raptors. It has dark brown greater coverts, tail and wing quills but a pale buff, uniform upperside and paler-tipped inner secondaries; the legs are covered with buffy feathers. The underside and underwing coverts are pale brown or buff, almost white in some. Adults have a long pale brown ruff with white streaks and a yellowish bill, and pale blue facial skin that is lighter than the dark blue of the visually similar Eurasian griffon vulture.

It lives mainly in the higher regions of the Himalayas and the Tibetan Plateau, at 1,200–5,500 metres. It is distributed from Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan and Iran to Pakistan, South Asia, Nepal and the Himalayan region, and to western China and central Asia. Juveniles may disperse further south, and vagrants have been recorded in Thailand, Burma, Singapore and Cambodia. (Wikipedia, general species account)
