I thought that I would start a thread on scary moments as about six months ago whilst out and about in the vicinity of Los Barrios,Cadiz,Spain,I watched a great number of Griffon vultures circling over the local cork oak forest.I tracked them down to a deer carcass on a forest track.I watched as they came and went and then got the camera out as they were coming towards me along the track a couple metres off the ground.One came directly at me and I stood and took it's picture before diving to the ground.I am sure that it would have hit me had it not moved,scary or what.The attached picture is out of focus but I think you can see just how close it was.
Anyone else have a scary story to tell,related to birdwatching of course.Regards.....Eddy
