In the video, a black vulture can be seen calmly flying beside a paraglider at a height of thousands of feet above land. As they glide through the air, green forests and buildings are visible below. The bird is seen adjusting its flight in the air by moving the rear part of its body (tail) up-down and right-left. Further in the video, the big black bird can be seen spanning across, coming above the glider, and then slowly perching on one of the glider shoes. It is also seen pecking on the paraglider’s shoe in search of food, while the glider pats the bird gently. Take a look at the amazing video here:
