About These Birds
Abutre-barbudo
O quebra-ossos é um grande abutre das cadeias montanhosas da Europa, Ásia e África. Reconhecível pelos tufos de penas negras sob o bico que formam uma 'barba'. Especializado em comer ossos, transporta-os a grande altitude e soltam-nos sobre rochas para os partir e aceder à medula. A plumagem adulta é esbranquiçada alaranjada nas partes inferiores e cinzento escuro nas superiores. Nidifica em cornisas de penhascos. As ações de conservação têm ajudado a recuperar populações na Europa.
Gavião-real
The harpy eagle is among the most powerful raptors in the world, with talons as large as a grizzly bear's claws. It is the national bird of Panama. Deforestation poses the greatest threat to this species, as each breeding pair requires a vast territory of undisturbed forest.
