About
Vultures are scavenging birds, feeding mostly on the carcasses of dead animals. Vultures are found in every continent except Antarctica and Oceania.
A particular characteristic of many vultures is a bald head, devoid of feathers. This is likely because a feathered head would become spattered with blood and other fluids, and thus be difficult to keep clean. This feature also allows quick cleaning in a nearby river.
A group of vultures is occasionally called a venue in literature. When circling in the air, a group of vultures is called a kettle. The word Geier from old English does not have a precise meaning in ornithology and can refer to a vulture as in some poetry.
