Day 7: Bierge and Casbas de Huesca

Home Biota: what is it? Animals Plants Mammals Birds Insects NL EN

The vulture show was impressive. The caretaker comes with a wheelbarrow full of meat to feed the vultures. In the past, vultures ate dead animals, but farmers now have to clean up the carcasses. As a result, the vulture population decreased, which they now solve by feeding the vultures. And as a tourist you can help keep the costs down a bit. The main prize is a bearded vulture. There vultures mainly want the bones to break them apart for the marrow. A young bearded vulture did indeed come to have a look.

Later in the day, the group goes for a mountain trail, but I don't dare. My app does hear nice birds, but photographing them is a different story. So again some insects and plants.
