Observation details

A very poor photograph is attached - all four observers agreed on the identification, including the raptor biologist. Superficially resemble a Turkey Vulture but the tail, as seen from below had multiple thin black and gray bands with a thick terminal black band. Yellow 'cere' visible in the photograph.
