Information about the Bearded Vulture:

The Bearded Vulture – also called the Lammergeier or Lammergeyer – is a large bird of prey native to the rugged and mountainous regions from Europe through much of Asia and Africa. An adult bird is about 37–49 inches long (94–125 cm) with a wingspan of 7.6–9.3 ft (2.31–2.83 m). It weighs roughly 9.9–17.2 lb (4.5–7.8 kg.) Unlike many of the other vulture species, this bird does not have a bald head. But it does get most of it’s food by scavenging. The Bearded Vulture is remarkable as it will take the bones of the dead animal far into the air and drop them on the rocks below to crack them open to expose the edible marrow. They will also feed on tortoises, and use the same technique to open the reptile’s shell.

The poster is printed on matte, museum-quality paper with Giclée printing quality:
• Paper thickness: 10.3 mil
• Paper weight: 5.6 oz/y² (192 g/m²)

Artist’s notes:

The Bearded Vulture was completed on 6.17.2014. I’ve become more and more fascinated with the often maligned vulture. I find them so interesting and drawing them with their wonderful wing patterns is a pleasure. I believe I will draw 1-2 more vultures and then create a collage of the species I’ve drawn. This drawing is based on a photo I came across on Wikipedia that was released into the public domain.
