Nice to see some more bearded vulture releases in Andalucia earlier this month.
A historical moment for Bearded Vultures in Sierra Nevada
On 10 June, two Bearded Vultures chicks were released in the municipality of Dilar, in Sierra Nevada National Park. The release site is at 2,000 meters altitude, in the ideal habitat for the species. The two chicks will spend the next couple of months in an artificial nest built inside a hacking cave provided by the Junta de Andalucía. This will allow them to become familiar with the environment until they are ready to fly on their own.
To celebrate this milestone, a public event was held in Dilar on 17 June engaging around 100 children and local community members. Attendees included the Director of Forestry Policy and Biodiversity of Junta de Andalucía, the Mayor of Dílar, the Director of the Sierra Nevada National Park, and representatives from SEPRONA and the National Police.
