Description
When: October 13, 2018
Where: Texel ZOO Oosterend Texel, The Netherlands
What do you know, it's a full-body shot of Gyros the walking Griffon Vulture
She's so pretty and fun I think she's learned her lesson of arriving in flight since the time she ended up in the watery ditch It's far safer to walk in doing your thing.
Species: Griffon Vulture (Vale gier)
Latin name: Gyps fulvus
Originates from Europe, the Middle east and Africa.
Current status: Least Concern

Thanks so much
Gyros is a very impressive bird; she doesn't look too big like this, with her wings and neck tucked in, but when she's all spread out she's a sight to behold!
