The Archaeology of bearded vultures

[Jennifer Miller]

Hello!

Following the very sad news of the loss of both Bald Eagle chicks at Sac Reserve, so terribly sad. 

This is an interesting article about the legacy of the nests found in Spain from the now extinct in the area of the bearded vulture (was that sentence at all grammatically correct?).

So much we can learn about human day to day life and the ecology and changing ecosystems all in one spot.

Wow!

Great article. I wasn't aware the bearded vulture populations were so low. In a way we could call them the Cal Condor of Europe. Hopefully conservation efforts will give them hope for more longevity. Thanks for sharing Jennifer.

I actually didn't know they were in Europe or extended into Spain. I always see things about them I thought high in the mountains in Nepal area. 

Or my sense of geography is completely off!

But good comparison with the Condor. I hope they take a similar effort.
