About These Birds
Bartgeier
The Bearded Vulture, or Lammergeier, is a spectacular high-mountain raptor found from the Pyrenees and Africa to Central and South Asia. Adults are orange-buff below, dark above, with a long diamond-shaped tail and striking beard of dark bristles below the bill. Uniquely, it feeds almost exclusively on bones, dropping them from height onto rocks to access the nutritious marrow.
Black-breasted Buzzard
The Black-breasted Buzzard is a large, powerful Australian raptor with brown upperparts, a distinctive black breast patch, and pale underparts with a rufous wash. It is found in arid and semi-arid interior Australia, inhabiting open plains, mulga scrub, and lightly wooded grasslands. It feeds on rabbits, lizards, and carrion, and is noted for its ability to use stones as tools to break open emu eggs.
