Yellow-legged gull Vs Griffon Vulture

The migratory journey of Griffon Vultures is fraught with challenges, as they navigate not only the vast expanse of the sea but also contend with relentless harassment from Yellow-legged Gulls and Peregrine Falcons along their route. These aerial predators pose a constant threat, swooping down to harass and intimidate the vultures in flight. Tragically, such confrontations can sometimes result in Griffon Vultures being forced down into the unforgiving waters below. Despite these adversities, Griffon Vultures persevere, driven by the instinctual call of migration and the promise of distant horizons.
