Eurasian Black Vulture (Cinereous Vulture), Aegypius Monacus (Aegypius Monacus)

The Cinereous vultures most biggest bird of prey in the Turkey. They make their nests in tall black pine trees as in the back. Other than feeding, it's rare for groups this large to come together. Their lineage has been counted as Near Threatened by the IUCN red list. We are very happy to see them breeding in Ankara.
