The majestic European Black vulture, scientifically known as Aegypius monachus, is a sight to behold. With its impressive wingspan and striking features, this bird commands attention wherever it goes. In the Campanarios de region, two of these magnificent creatures are captured in a captivating portrait. Their intense gaze and regal presence showcase their dominance in the animal kingdom. Another snapshot from Spain showcases a Cinereous vulture of the same species. Against the backdrop of February's wintry landscape, this bird stands tall and proud, exuding strength and resilience. Traveling back in time to 1927 at London Zoo, we find an image of a near threatened Eurasian Black Vulture. This black-and-white photograph captures the essence of this remarkable creature's existence during that era. An illustration from Charles Robert Bree's book "A History of Birds of Europe Not Observed in the British Isles" takes us even further back in time. Published in 1867, this color lithograph depicts a Cinereous Vulture with intricate detail and artistic flair. Moving forward to 1882, we encounter another lithograph showcasing Southern European vultures. The intricately drawn feathers and lifelike portrayal bring these birds to life on paper. Fast-forwarding to April 2009 in Extremadura, Spain; an extraordinary moment is captured when an Aegypius monachus finds itself amidst vibrant flowers. This juxtaposition between nature's beauty and the vulture's imposing stature creates a visually stunning scene that leaves viewers awestruck.
