It is Coming for Us!
We had seen a movement on the scree below us, whatever it was, it was big. Suddenly it took off and it was instantly clear that it was the Bearded Vulture, a bird I have wanted to see since 2 pairs were reintroduced into our area 7 or 8 years ago. It began circling myself and Hibou, who got much better shots than I did. See comment from kimb below, she has managed to copy the link.
What a perfect end to a day of blue skies, multicolored alpine flowers, distant avalanches and fabulous views.
