Cinereous Vulture (Aegypius monachus) is distinctly dark, with the whole body being brown excepting the pale head in adults, which is covered in fine blackish down. The skin of the head and neck is bluish-gray and a paler whitish color above the eye. The adult has brown eyes, a purplish cere, a blue-gray bill and pale blue-gray legs. It measures 98–120 cm in total length with a 2.5–3.1 m wingspan. Males can weigh from 6.3 to 11.5 kg, whereas females can weigh from 7.5 to 14 kg. It is thus one of the world's heaviest flying birds.
