Observation details
Soaring over the lodge with the vulture, getting mobbed by a Rock Kestrel and later by drongos. This is a lifer for me. What a strange silhouette with the board-like wings and long square tail. Looking at the in-camera photos, I thought sectretarybird maybe due to the tail. In flight, it evoked the shape of a North American Turkey Vulture for me.
