Thanks, Ian.


Neat and startling video. Glad everyone flew away.


Could this be a vautour percnoptere?

It looks like a Himalayan Griffon Vulture to me, but I need to get back home to my reference books to be 100% positive about that ID.

Although the caption says eagle, it looks like a vulture to me, but which
species?
