EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by John Cancalosi, we witness the fascinating dining habits of the magnificent Cape Vulture. These avian connoisseurs have gathered around a tantalizing spread of skeleton bones in South Africa's open grassland. Known for their impeccable taste in carrion cuisine, these vultures are not your average scavengers. With their striking black plumage and impressive wingspan, they proudly showcase their status as top-notch bone collectors. Living in harmony with Lesotho and South Africa's breathtaking landscapes, these IUCN Vulnerable creatures rely on orographic lift from nearby mountains and cliffs for roosting and nesting sites. Talk about prime real estate! But it's not all work and no play for our feathered friends. After a hearty meal, these colonial birds indulge in some well-deserved communal bathing at their favorite spots. It seems like even vultures appreciate a good spa day! While most birds stick close to home within a 100 km radius of their colonies, these social butterflies often take to the skies together, soaring gracefully as one united flock. So next time you stumble upon an exquisite print capturing nature's wonders like this one by John Cancalosi, remember that even vultures know how to enjoy life – bone fragments included!
