Immature Bearded Vulture

Immature Bearded Vulture (Gypaetus barbatus)

Tuesday morning at the Giants Castle vulture hide; what a great day! At one stage we counted 5 immature Bearded Vultures (Lammergeiers) flying around the hide, and an adult joined them later.

See the Opus page for more info on this species.

Alan I like that capture. Will have to come up to KZN some time you appear to have great birds up there.
