GRIFFON VULTURE

One Griffon Vulture - on the first day, from the coach from the airport to our appartment, thats all we saw. These are unmistakeable birds, absolutely HUGE. Larger than large Eagles and with a much smaller head. They don't breed on Kephalonia, but are regular visitors from neighbouring islands and countries - soaring over vast swathes of the region at great heights.
