Bit of info for those who don't know about this bird
They have a number of names Lammergeier, Bearded Vulture and Quebrantahuesos (bone breaker). It is/was one of the rarest birds in Europe.
Once upon a time it was a common bird in Andalucia, but thanks to poison, poaching and hunting the bird became extinct in Andalucia during the 80's. There has been a successful but slow (takes many years for these birds to reach maturity) re-introduction programme.
