🦅Indian Vulture
قِشْعَام هندي أو هَوْزَب أو النسر الهندي نسر من نسور العالم القديم من جنس القشعام، يعيش بشكل أساسي على منحدرات الهضاب في أواسط الهند وشبه الجزيرة الهندية، ويضع عشه على جرف أو منحدر في الغالب، ويضعه أيضاً على الأشجار، كما في ولاية راجاستان الهندية. وكغيره من النسور، فإنه يقتات بشكل أساسي على جيف الحيوانات النافقة، التي يعثر عليها من خلال التحليق فوق مناطق السافانا وحول مواطن البشر. وتتحرك النسور الهندية غالبا على شكل مجموعات. والنسر الهندي قريب جيني للنسر الأسمر.
