The title of the "dirtiest bird" is often attributed to the vulture, particularly the Turkey Vulture. These birds are known for their scavenging habits, feeding on decaying carcasses, which can expose them to various pathogens. Additionally, vultures often bathe in water or use dust baths to clean themselves, but their feeding habits can lead to a reputation for being dirty. Despite this, they play a crucial role in the ecosystem by helping to decompose dead animals and prevent the spread of disease.
