It was 8oo yards+ away. It finely flew and we got good looks in flight. Sent from my Galaxy Tab® S2

But it could only be seen with a scope because it was way out in the field, about 800 feet. He said it was walking around on the ground with some vultures.. They could see the yellow head. I think the reason we didn't find it yesterday was there were a lot of disturbances going on. In one field was a tractor with a spray rig spraying fertilizer or chemicals on the ground. Plus, a crop duster plane was spraying another nearby field, and there were big farm trucks moving around in the fields. Good luck if you go for it! Glad to know those disturbances didn't scare it off! Karen Holliday
