Generally silent; hisses and grunts at carrion with other vultures. Gives low croaking 'arrr' near nest. At colonies produces cackling and grunting — not melodic vocalizations.

About These Birds

Belted Kingfisher

물총새는 암컷이 수컷보다 더 화려하여 추가적인 붉은색 배 밴드를 가지는 것이 특이합니다. 이 시끄러운 새들은 독특한 덜컹거리는 소리로 영역을 알립니다. 강둑에 무거운 부리를 사용하여 최대 2.4m 깊이의 둥지 굴을 판다.

그리폰독수리

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.
