ultures are often misunderstood but are crucial to the health of their ecosystems. As scavengers, they help clean up the environment by consuming carcasses, thus preventing the spread of disease. Their keen eyesight allows them to spot food from great heights, and their bald heads are an adaptation to stay clean while feeding. Vultures are social birds, often seen soaring in groups, and their presence is a sign of a balanced ecosystem. They are a reminder of nature's intricate web, where every species has its place and purpose.
