The bird was wearing a yellow <a href=\"http:\/\/www.magornitho.org\/tag\/colour-rings\/\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">colour ring<\/a>, so most likely from Spain. The bird was photographed with two other scavengers, a griffon vulture and a brown-necked raven (see photo). This is the first record of cinereous vulture in Mauritania, and one of only a handful of records of this European vulture species south of Morocco: the species has only been recorded in Senegal (4 records) and in Mali, but has been seen more frequently in Morocco.<\/p>\n<p> On the other hand, Yoav Perlman has recently published in his blog details of an observation of an African white-backed vulture near Trujillo (Extremadura, Spain) last May (17th May). Yoan was doing fieldwork there when he saw a group of vultures on the ground, clearly attracted by a carcass, including griffons and several cinereous vultures too. He then noticed a very small and extremely pale vulture (see photo), which he has now identified as an African white-backed. Read his fascinating account of the discovery \u2013 and the identification challenge &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yoavperlman.com\/2018\/01\/back-from-ashes-african-white-backed.html\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p> If\u00a0accepted by the Spanish rarities committee, this would be the 5th Spanish record.
