Sea Vulture

Sea Vultures are a species of large carrion sea birds that are native to the Guerrerian Sea. They have one of the longest wingspans of any bird, reaching up to 2.8 m. Sea Vultures are highly efficient in the air, using dynamic soaring and slope soaring to cover great distances with little exertion. They feed on squid, fish, and floating carrions of whales, sharks, and even mortals who have met an unfortunate end at sea.   Sea Vultures are colonial, nesting for the most part on remote oceanic islands, often with several colonies nesting together. Pair bonds between males and females form over several years, with the use of "ritualised dances", and last for the life of the pair. A breeding season can take over a year from laying to fledging, with a single egg laid in each breeding attempt.
