It took sitting outside in the sun and being surrounded by wasps to get this photo, but I wasn't leaving until I got one! This cute lil European Stonechat was gathering insects from our window ledge when I noticed the tap tap tap ☺️

Hij heeft het zwaar, deze torenvalk man.
Hij is aan het ruien, moet nog altijd muizen aanslepen voor in elk geval zijn laatste uitgevolgen legsel van 4, misschien ook nog voor het eerste legsel van 7 eerder dit jaar. En hij moet ze verdedigen tegen de voorbijtrekkende buizerds en kiekendieven, luid schreeuwend. Soms hangen er 20 torenvalken boven mijn tuin!

Research explains why feeding #birds can make you feel better
A research team led by Virginia Tech found that people connected feeding and watching birds with positive emotions, engagement, and a sense of meaning^^^
I suspect it's an age thing too.https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1142782

Another vulture species I love is the Egyptian vulture. These screengrabs are from a live stream of a nest in Bulgaria. These vultures are so unique with their bright yellow faces and their long head feathers sometimes stick right out.
They also have unique behaviour: they're known for the rare feat of tool use! They drop rocks on big eggs, like ostrich eggs, to break them open so they can eat them. So clever!
And these two love to strike funny poses on the live cam all the time.

There's more detail on the page I linked to, but I'll share a couple of my favourite bits in a thread here, too.
These are my favourite vulture species: the bearded vulture. They're the only bird that primarily eats bones! They have super strong stomach acid so they can break down bones. They're also *huge* and the two pictured here (named Bones and Mountain girl) are super cuddly and love to nuzzle and preen each other. These two live at a rescue/conservation centre in Spain.
Bearded vultures are really endangered and lots of people are working hard to breed more of them. They often use puppets that look like the adults when humans have to feed the chicks, to make sure they don't imprint on the humans.

Since @Joshsharp pointed out to me that today (5 Sep) is international vulture awareness day, which is meant to help clear up some of the myths and misconceptions people believe about vultures, I thought I'd share some stuff about why vultures are cool, and some of my favourite ones: https://bellesbirds.com/vultures
