No surprises when other birds disappear when this one arrives, its a bird of prey.
It often eats carrion or road kill.
One of my rare opportunities to take its photo by Auckland airport

Thanks so much Elenka pleased you like it.
Thanks so much Albert, I agree!
Flying like that, it does look very gallant
You got the touch for capturing great photos
Thanks so much Jenna, glad you like it.
Look at that huge wingspan!
It certainly is, but it does a good service. It removes dead animals from the road, even on country roads where few people are. Yes, its strong.
A very strong bird. The wings are huge
