A captive bred and re-introduced Bearded vulture is now staying in the Netherlands ( ZooChatter @Ursus already made a photo of it and placed it in our Gallery : Lammergeier juvenile (Eglazine) by Ursus posted 6 May 2021 at 8:36 PM I also found a nice video with a lot of information about this animal :
Erm, not wanting to bust your excitement but does this relate to the news that a bearded vulture flew itself to death against a wind turbine today in the Netherlands? Probably huh?
This was actually a different bearded vulture! There has been 2 confirmed individuals, a third actually even, however that one only was sighted once and the confirmation about it being a different individual then the other two I only heard via others. The first one to arrive would be Eglazine, the bird I saw and the one in the video Vogelcommando posted. She stayed first at the Hoge Veluwe for a good while and then moved over to the Archemerberg for a while and seems to have moved on to Germany, if I am not mistaken. The second bird was sighted in the Groningen region near the coast once. But I don't know much more about this bird. And the third bird would be ''Angele'' which would be the one that died in the incident after only having been here for a few days. My sources for this information are observation.org/waarnemingen.nl
