Thanks for the info I did not know of the two species, I will document. It will also be common as you say, but since 2005, the year of the photo, I returned to Kenya at least 8 times beating all the parks except the Samburu and I've never seen one.

the hooded monachus has recently been classified as endangered BIRDLIFEINTERNATIONAL
www.birdlife.org/datazone/speciesfactsheet.php?id=3372
Ethiopia found it very common compared to other African countries such as Nigeria that I shot, Cameroon, Senegal.

Actually I think it is more correct to say that is potentially at risk for a number of factors, but also says that we should make a scientific assessment of the 'progress of the population.
Among the risk factors such as talking about the loss of 'environment, but anyone who has been in Ethiopia has seen that thrive all' inside of the villages and cities as if they were pigeons.
For more on the same site is correctly reported the estimated number of 197,000 copies which at the time did not place him among the animals certainly do it in a particularly rare imminent risk of extinction ...
This of course does not mean that we should underestimate the risks for the future.

I agree with Memy which probably is not particularly kind to the risk, as it is certainly the Neophron percnopterus in Italy they were not last more than 6-10 pairs, also in the rest of its range is not doing well, keep in mind that especially with areal species is Palearctic, therefore most at risk for environmental change around the Mediterranean basin decreased by about 50% in the last three generations (42 years). In Europe there are currently estimated 2.600/3.100 couples. only in Spain, there is a significant population 1320-1475 couples, but there also has problems,
