Bearded Vulture : Vs Himalayan Griffon in the wild. Moving up on a narrow footpath ... winding through the lovely forest ... we stood for a while to admire the beauty ... but more so ... to catch our breath ... Renu looked up and indicated to a Griffon lazily circling in the sky ... fairly high ... As we watched the big fellow and were talking about its huge 9 feet wing-span ... we saw him pick up great speed suddenly moving in one direction ... but our bewilderment was short lived when we located another raptor homing in on the big Vulture from another direction ..... a Falcon ... nay ... our first impression changed quickly as its wing size was only slightly smaller than the Griffon ... Lammergeier ... yes long ... wedge shaped tail and huge size ... was a give away ... the aerial show enthralled us ... we were to watch him chase away the the Griffon out of sight ... circle once and go back in the direction it came from ... probably its nesting area on a high cliff ... Standing on a narrow path ... one of the team member supported me from behind to prevent toppling over the edge while shooting overhead. Elevation: 2252 m. Date added to IBC: May 8, 2018.
