Why it matters
The European Honey-buzzard is a fascinating raptor defined by its specialized diet, as it primarily feeds on the larvae and nests of social wasps and bees. Its soaring wing shape and rounded tail are distinct adaptations for its migratory lifestyle, which involves long-distance travel between its European breeding grounds and wintering sites in Africa.
