Bearded Vulture - Spain. Also known as the Lammergeier.

The photo gallery of Bearded Vulture you can find at: https://www.marekjackowski.net/p60244... Like other vultures, it is a scavenger, feeding mostly on the remains of dead animals. It usually disdains, however, the actual meat and lives on a diet that is typically 85–90% bone marrow. This is the only living bird species that specializes in feeding on marrow. The bearded vulture can swallow whole or bite through brittle bones up to the size of a lamb's femur and its powerful digestive system quickly dissolves even large pieces. The bearded vulture has learned to crack bones too large to be swallowed by carrying them in flight to a height of 50–150 m (160–490 ft) above the ground and then dropping them onto rocks below, which smashes them into smaller pieces and exposes the nutritious marrow. They can fly with bones up to 10 cm (3.9 in) in diameter and weighing over 4 kg (8.8 lb), or nearly equal to their own weight. Copyright © Marek Jackowski, 2019 - 2025. All Rights Reserved.
