                                             The 
                                            bill on the Hooded Vulture is particularly 
                                            long and narrow, making it instantly 
                                            identifiable from other vultures. 
                                            The woolly 'hood' up over the neck 
                                            and top of the head is also unique 
                                            to this species.
