On holiday 2023 in Tanzania. In the bush was this beautiful Southern collared vulture.
The bird is 21-23 cm long and weighs 25-58 g. It is a medium-sized, black and white-coloured clawed vulture, with a thin long tail. The top of the head, back and part of the wings are black. The upper wing feathers are white. The tail is black with white outer tail pins.
Its food consists of insects, mice, bats and small birds. It also plunders nests of birds, eating the young. This bird is very territorial and attacks any bird, which invades its territory. It sits on poles and wires, scanning the surroundings for prey and intruders.
Dear reader,
A friend asked me a few years ago: will you join a photography course. I never expected to enjoy it so much. So I would like to share with you my photos that I think have the "wow" factor.
Greetings Monique
