[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The cinereous vulture (Aegypius monachus) is a large raptorial bird that is distributed through much of Eurasia. It is also known as the black vulture, monk vulture, or Eurasian black vulture. It is a member of the family Accipitridae, which also includes many other diurnal raptors such as kites, buzzards and harriers. It is one of the two largest Old World vultures, attaining a maximum size of 14 kg, (roughly 30 lbs), 1.2 m long (almost 4 ft) and 3.1 m (a bit over 10 ft) across the wings.

Ciao Francesco,sono stato anche io qui lo scorso anno,e probabilmente questo avvoltoio era gia' schiattato da tempo considerando il trattamento ed i 9 anni che sono passati dalla tua foto alla mia visita. Resta questo bel primo di ottima qualita',un bel ricordo e anche l'occasione di parlare di questa specie. Buon Martedi,Luciano

Excellent capture.

Ciao Francesco, fantastico ritratto dell'avvoltoio, dettagli al top e splendida nitidezza, bravo, ciao Silvio

Hi Francesco,
Beautiful portrait, tack sharp and the details are fantastic. So pity this specimen was captured. Delightful photo, bravo!
Kind regards from Ireland, László
