In the breathtaking Pyrenees mountains, between Spain and France we journey through the eyes of the lammergeier, a majestic bird facing the challenges of survival. This film captures the struggles of the lammergeier as it navigates a world dominated by scavenging bird competitors like the cinereous vulture, griffon vulture, Egyptian vulture and even other scavenger mammals. Through intimate storytelling and breathtaking cinematography, we explore the intricate hierarchy among these species during feeding times, highlighting the lammergeier’s resilience and adaptability. Witness the delicate balance of nature as the lammergeier strives to thrive in its rugged habitat.
