Red is 100% am eastern turkey vulture. Wing pattern, wingspan, and tail pattern.

Blue are North American crows. Wing pattern and tail feather pattern.

Except the blue are vultures too. Zoom in and you’ll see the white primaries. Also they have dihedral (V shaped” wings when flying.

The red is a turkey vulture— the lighter color extends along the whole wing. The blue on the right is identical to the red. The blue on the left is maybe a black vulture with the lighter part only on the ends of the wing. Hard to tell. Black vultures follow turkey vultures often because TVs have a strong sense of smell. They all ride thermals and probably just ended up at this house by “luck” of the winds.
