Research papers on similar behavior:

Scientists in awe of huge olfactory bulb found in turkey vulture brain

http://insider.si.edu/2017/12/scientists-in-awe-of-huge-olfactory-bulb-found-in-turkey-vulture-brain/


A turkey vulture, left, and a black vulture vie for access to carrion. Lacking the highly sensitive sense of smell that turkey vultures have, black vultures often follow turkey vultures to a meal and then aggressively push them away. (Flickr photo by Jim Mullhaupt)


This image shows the well developed nasal openings of a turkey vulture. (Flickr photo by David Wynia)


Shown above are the brains of (a) black vulture and (b) turkey vulture. Arrows indicate the olifactory bulb (OB) and optic lobe (TeO) of each specimen.
