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.
Andaman Serpent-eagle
The Andaman Serpent-eagle is a vulnerable raptor with an impressive 73.1 cm wingspan, weighing around 895 grams. It is endemic to the Andaman Islands and inhabits primary forest, where it hunts snakes and lizards. Deforestation on the islands threatens its small population.
