  • Cover photo description:
  • Griffon vultures in the most northern, natural, Griffon Vulture breeding grounds in Europe. The area is found right on the borderland between Spain and France to the extreme west of the Pyrenean mountain range. For centuries the vultures here, some of almost 3m wingspan, have held vigil while Basque shepherds would smuggle flocks of sheep and horses, refugees and British airmen, over the mountain pass below. Inextricably linked with death and the macabre, the Griffon Vulture feeds on carrion and has also been known to attack weak newly born lambs and calfs.
