About These Birds
Hering griffon
The griffon vulture is one of Europe's largest flying birds and a crucial scavenger in Mediterranean ecosystems. These social birds nest in large cliff colonies and can soar for hours using thermals without flapping. Vulture populations faced a crisis from the veterinary drug diclofenac, which proved fatal when consumed through contaminated carcasses.
Elang paria
The Black Kite is a medium-large raptor with brown plumage, a slightly forked tail, and an agile, buoyant flight style. It is one of the most abundant and widespread raptors in the world, inhabiting open woodlands, farmland, wetlands, and urban areas across Africa, Europe, Asia, and Australia. It is an opportunistic scavenger and hunter, feeding on carrion, fish, small vertebrates, insects, and refuse.
