Black vulture - Cuber - a photo on Flickriver

            Black vulture flying around the peaks of the Cuber reservoir, Majorca.  Normally these are so distant that they appear as dots just disappearing over the cliff faces.  On this day, however, there was an area further up where they appeared to be approachable.  After some bushwhacking through a dry river valley I got up the hill to a point where they flew right over my head.  I'm wondering if I fortuitously found an area where goat carcasses are left out for them and they were coming to see if it was meal time.  There were certainly plenty of bleached bones about so I'm thinking that could be the story.

Thank you all for your appreciative comments.
