you can go to mongolia on your holliday and you will see many. this was a lucky shot. because i have also many picture's of empty vulture nest's.

I have been fortunate enough to see these in Spain and even fly alongside them in my glider, but have not been able to get a photo yet. Food is sometimes put out for vultures on our airfield, mostly Griffons and Egyptians, but on one occasion there was a black one amongst them, which I photographed flying away from a distance.

And you had it right before. Sorry our names are a bit different sometimes.
