This is the elusive King vulture, not easy to be this close to a bird like this if one is not inside a blind like in this case.
Image taken from the best blind in Costa Rica, we don´t have to shoot though glass any more!

For this one

Mark IV
600f/4
Tripod
FF

Thanks for looking.  :D

A great portrait of this amazing-looking species, one I've always wanted to see.
