A wee run around the gorge

Post by Blackal »

Went along the north side of the Gorge de Verdon yesterday, and found a loop road that took us to the very edge of the gorge.

Spotted a pair of Griffon Vultures, riding the thermals about 1000 mtrs above the river below.

Not sure what wingspan they were - but they were mahoosive, and you just know - that they take big shits! :shock:

Al :D
