Hi Ironpaw

Just a note: It's not a Griffon Vulture, it's the Eurasian Black Vulture (called 'Cinereous Vulture' in the US, scientifically 'Aegypius monachus').
I have no doubt, I am working with this species since many years.

Beautiful photo!

Kind regards.

You are absolutely right!  Thank you very much for pointing that out, I will change it to reflect the correct species.  I was not into identifying birds when I took this 7 years ago, and I believe it was included in an enclosure with Griffon Vultures which was why I misidentified.

He looks so fluffy... why it has so nice name in English but in Finnish it's something like Goose Vulture?
