Black vulture with a patagial (wing) tag, Dutch Gap, VA |
In the fall of 2007, The Center for Conservation Biology (CCB) marked 100 black vultures with patagial tags (wing tags). Each bird was double tagged with identical markers on each wing. The tags are orange with 3 black numbers. White tags with black characters have also been used briefly in Virginia and further south. If you observe a black vulture with a patagial marker please report your observation to CCB staff:
