Bearded vulture update...flying soon...

The young vulture is fully feathered and its first flight is imminent. It is very dark in colour, lacking the white (and ochre) colouring of the adults. With this success, it is likely that the adults will return to the nest site to attempt another brood next year. A resident pair of Bearded vultures in the Bargy (approx 30 km from us) have nested 13 years in a row, so we hope 'our' vultures will be as prolific! N
