In southern California, those large black birds with white tags are most likely Turkey Vultures. Turkey Vultures are in the family Cathartidae, also known as the “New World Vultures”. That family also includes California Condors, but Turkey Vultures are much smaller in size compared to condors, with a wingspan of about 5.5 feet (condor wings stretch over 9 feet across).
