The Griffon Vulture (Gyps fulvus) is a large scavenger that feeds mainly on the carcasses of dead animals. These impressive birds often soar together over open landscapes in search of food. They build their nests on remote, undisturbed cliffs, usually close to areas where carrion is plentiful.

When resting or feeding, Griffon Vultures communicate with grunts and hisses. In the wild, they can live for decades, and in captivity their lifespan may reach up to 41 years. Breeding takes place on rocky cliffs in mountainous regions of southern Europe, North Africa, and Asia, with each pair raising a single chick.

While they may gather in loose groups, not all individuals behave the same way—many remain in one area, but younger birds often set out on long journeys, sometimes covering great distances.

I miss "my" crows, but I got to see up close another of my favorite birds this week. It has been a while.
