Palm-nut Vulture
The palm-nut vulture is unusual among vultures, in that about 70% of its diet is vegetarian — mostly consisting of palm nut fruits. It was once called the "vulturine fish eagle”, because of its eagle-like appearance and the way in which it hunts; swooping to the water's surface to grab fish.
