What's flying near you?

Griffon vultures!
There's a healthy population in the mountains but they rarely come out into the foothills, we see them maybe once or twice a year, but I guess the weather has been really bad for the them this last week. Six flew down the valley towards us and then found a thermal on the hill opposite - two more arrived and then some of the local kites and buzzards joined them in the thermal. They evetually went too high to be able to see anymore even with the binos. What a Sunday morning treat.
