Nice! I haven't seen many pictures of vultures on here at least in Florida. Black Vultures are gregarious amongst their species. They soar, roost, and eat together. They actually will follow the Turkey Vulture for finding carrion since they don't have a good sense of smell whereas the Turkey Vulture does. :)
