About These Birds
African Goshawk
非洲苍鹰（Accipiter tachiro）是一种中型森林鹰，体重约314克，广泛分布于撒哈拉以南非洲。属鹰科（Accipitridae），以鸟类为主食。雄鸟上体深灰色，下体白色具棕色横纹。
兀鹫
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.
