Here's a short video presentation of the report to the rock of the eagles.
Having eaten at the Roc du Berger, the report calls us and we must continue. We are now arrived at the Rock of the Eagles.
The Rock eagles consists of three parts: The first part where we can see birds in cages and various explanations of the protection of
architectural structures. The second part comprises the various cages of birds that are used for the third party. The latter consists
of two towers and an open area with a tiny pond in the middle.
By visiting the first part I hear someone say ''peep-bo's it going ?''. I look around me, nobody.
And watching the parrots in front of me, a''gray''Gabon repeats his question. Like what, it does not
happen only to others, or in movies / comics / stories. In the cage next to a Arras me in the eye.
A healer misses us and informed us that there will be a performance in a few minutes so we will towards the two towers.
Shortly after specacle begins with the first released: black kites.
Then come the vultures. Great, that's all that comes to mind at first. Little by little they are gaining altitude. They can go up to 4km
above Rocamadour, using the hot air stream. Moreover, the trainer explains that the vultures can recognize a pigeon over 3km away. So
they easily recognize the raised arm of the falconer telling them to pick up the piece of meat in their hands.
One arm raised, the falconer explains that the vultures are released from custody and that park staff can not force them to return if they do not envy. But they
come here because they know they are cared for, they are given a meal and shelter. It's the same for wild birds that have been hosted, treated and released
from the rock of the eagles. They keep coming back here. Finally, the vultures decided to dive in search of food and it is 120km / h it drops like a stone. But
a stone of several pounds at that speed can stun a man without any problems. At this speed, the feathers mean sounding strong.
Then we see an aerial ballet with the eagles. A little bird with a feather on the beak, the eagle family, also going on our heads.
After seeing a Cassoar break an egg with a rock (in the video), here are the parrots and macaws that are taking off.
Finally, the second part we have spent in speed poru see the show: the different cages with the animals of the show. White owls,
great horned owls, vultures.
The rock of the Eagles was founded in 1977 and has just over 400 birds of about sixty different species.
It still home to nurse injured birds and take good care since its inception.
The day ends with this double reports. Good evening !
