Griffon in B&W
Normally, having blue skies in the background and not framing the whole bird, is seen as something negative in bird photography. B&W, might help to stand out the expression and details on the plumage of this griffon, and improve this image. What do you think?- Yeray

Travel
Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving. ― Terry Pratchett, A Hat Full of Sky- Yeray

Vulture and Moon
Another picture from the other day watching vultures with Javi. It's an image that we have seen many times, and with different species. It's, in fact, the combination of two pictures with the same exposure on the same spot. One focusing on the vulture when passed by the moon, and the...- Yeray

Vultures in the Strait of Gibraltar
We are having stunning days with beautiful autumn light and clear skies. This afternoon Javi and I went to take pictures of the vultures and see if there was any Rppell's around. We didn't find any, but enjoyed our time nevertheless! This vulture perched nearby with the last lights of the day.- Yeray

Flying Griffon
This weekend I'll be guiding some birders from Iceland. They are looking for good images of griffon vultures. This one was taken with the last lights of the day. It's one of my favorite photography subjects, and relatively easy to shoot in flight.- Yeray

Fast for the feast!
Dozens of eurasian griffons (Gyps fulvus) congregated near Tarifa to feast on a dead cow. We could see the whole thing without disturbing them and enjoy a great show. Several other people (not birders) stopped their cars to join us, they were amazed!- Yeray
