The Eastern Imperial EagleThe Eastern Imperial Eagle is a large species of bird of prey that breeds from southeastern Europe to western and central Asia. Most populations are migratory and winter in northeastern Africa, and southern and eastern Asia.

Black Stork

Slightly smaller than the White Stork, the Black Stork is a large bird, 95 to 100 cm in length with a 145–155 cm wingspan, and weighing around 3 kilograms. They can stand as tall as 102 cm. Like all storks, it has long legs, a long neck, and a long, straight, pointed beak.

Menu

Dalmatian PelicanThis huge bird is the largest of the pelicans and one of the largest living bird species. It measures 160 to 183 cm in length, 9–15 kg in weight and 290–351 cm in wingspan. Its mean weight of around 11.5 kg makes it the world's heaviest flying bird species, although the largest individuals among male bustards and swans may be heavier than the largest individual Dalmatian Pelican.

Menu

BatsBats are mammals of the order Chiroptera whose forelimbs form webbed wings, making them the only mammals naturally capable of true and sustained flight. By contrast, other mammals said to fly, such as flying squirrels, gliding possums, and colugos, can only glide for short distances.

Menu

The Griffon VultureThe Griffon Vulture is 93–122 cm long with a 2.3–2.8 m wingspan. In the nominate race the males weigh 6.2 to 10.5 kg and females typically weigh 6.5 to 11.3 kg, while in the Indian subspecies the vultures average 7.1 kg. Extreme adult weights have been reported from 4.5 to 15 kg the latter likely a weight attained in captivity.

Menu

European ground squirrelThe European ground squirrel is about the size of a brown rat, with an adult measuring 20 to 23 cm and a weight of 240 to 340 g. It has a slender build with a short bushy tail. The short dense fur is yellowish-grey, tinged with red, with a few indistinct pale and dark spots on the back. The underside is pale with a sandy-coloured abdomen. The large dark eyes are placed high on the head and the small, rounded ears are hidden in the fur.

Menu

Eurasian Collared DoveIt is a medium sized dove, distinctly smaller than the Wood Pigeon, similar in length to a Rock Pigeon but slimmer and longer-tailed, and slightly larger than the related Turtle Dove, with an average length of 32 cm from tip of beak to tip of tail, with a wingspan of 47–55 cm, and a weight of 125–240 g. It is grey-buff to pinkish-grey overall, a little darker above than below, with a blue-grey under wing patch. The tail feathers are grey-buff above, and dark grey tipped white below; the outer tail feathers also tipped whitish above.

Menu

Saker FalconThe Saker Falcon is a large hierofalcon, larger than the Lanner Falcon and almost as large as Gyrfalcon at 47–55 cm length with a wingspan of 105–129 cm.
