    Dimensions

    A Griffon vulture at the moment of landing. This photo gives, as it seems to me, a good idea about the proportions in the bird's dimensions in general, as compared with the common crow, standing aside.

    Big Scenery - BIG Bird

    One of a number of Griffon Vultures residing in the Gorge du Verdon, Provence, France. The Gorge is massive with sheer walls of staggering height. What I describe as "big scenery". This bird must have been 300yards away and was lost in the enormity of the cliff face without the use of the scope...

    I was just about to drive off when this Griffon landed about 100 yards away. I thought that getting all my equipment out of the car might disturb it but I managed a couple of photos before it took off again

    This Griffon was nesting on a cliff ledge at eye level 250metres across from the public viewpoint at Mirador de la Tajadilla in Monfrague.

    Together with my sister and my brother I walked on a high mountain. When we arrived at the top, we were very tired, but then a Bonellis Eagle flew in high of 50 Meters over us and 5 Griffon Vultures circled in the same high as we was in a distance of 20 meters. So we had no time to rest!
