The Egyptian Vulture of Gachibowli Neophron percnopterus Pradeep Kumar Hill Ridge Apartments, Gachibowli, Hyderabad, India March, April 2014

The Egyptian Vulture of Gachibowli A photostory developed exclusively for the residents of Hill Ridge Apartments, Gachibowli, Hyderabad © 2014 Pradeep Kumar Narsupalli, Hyderabad, India

First sighted on 10 March 2014, this bird has been visiting us since then.

One may notice it hovering over Hill Ridge Villas and Apartments in the mornings around 8-10 am

One may also notice it perched on the top floors of the building behind our apartments.

It stays here for a considerable time viewing the surroundings for food.

Egyptian vultures are smaller, have shorter neck and elongated beak compared to other vultures

They use tools - like stones - to break egg shells

Their range covers southern Europe, Africa, the Middle East and India.

Measuring almost 3 feet from beak to tail, they have a wingspan of 6 feet

These vultures are endangered because the drug Diclofenac for treating cattle caused rapid population decline in India

Diamond shaped tail is easily noticeable during flight

Seems to be exploring a place suitable for nesting

Very often a black kite comes to drive him away

The vulture is much bigger than the kite

One day, a house crow (not in pic) passing by noticed this vulture and started challenging it. The vulture ignored the pestering crow for some time, but finally shooed it off

Dates photographed: March 10, 22, 26, 28 April 01, 02, 05, 08, 26, 28, 30 Time usually between 8 and 10 am except on two days

On April 8, two Egyptian vultures were sighted, chasing each other Male and female look alike

Goodbye for now Hope to see again
