The pied Turkey Vulture I saw today looks very much like one I photographed 
last year in November 2015.

Here is today's checklist with photos:

[cayugabirds-l] Turkey Vulture with white in wings

[Kevin J. McGowan]

While taking a walk at lunch through Sapsucker woods I saw a Turkey Vulture 
circling over the pond. On close inspection, I saw it had big white patches in 
the tips of the wings. I put photographs in my checklist at 
http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist/S33000639.

I haven't looked to compare it with photos of a similar bird we were seeing a 
year of two ago, but it looked very similar.
