Our Lammergeier hides<\/strong> get excellent results, but admittedly are not over spacious.<\/p>\n

Photographers getting ready to occupy the Lammergeier hides<\/em><\/p>\n

Photographers<\/strong> patiently await the arrival of Lammergeiers<\/strong>, Griffon Vultures<\/strong> or Black Vultures<\/strong>. Or perhaps fidget\u00a0nervously in anticipation of that special shot… the Lammergeier in flight, on the ground, landing, taking off…Either way, there isn’t anywhere for them to go until the designated pick-up time. No wonder they rub and massage their creaking bones when they get out of the hides for a welcome\u00a0stretch. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

But a few stiff joints are worth it to get that close to the famed bone-breaking Lammergeier.<\/p>\n

Michele Mendi<\/strong> <\/a>came to us in mid-November and was very pleased with some of the photos he took. He has very generously offered to share some of them with BirdingInSpain.com<\/strong> and our readers, as a preview of some of his work.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Many thanks, Michele! Marvellous!<\/p>\n

Michele was not alone. Present too was\u00a0Frenchman Sebastien Beghelli from Naturapics<\/a>. Sebastien<\/strong> gained a lot of useful experience here, as well as some very good shots which we hope to see in the near future. Come on Sebastien, show us some more!<\/p>\n

November visitors also included two of Scandinavia’s top photographers:<\/p>\n

Tom Schandy<\/strong>. See some of Tom’s\u00a0photos and his article <\/a>\u00a0here (someone translate from Norwegian please!)<\/p>\n

Brutus \u00d6stling<\/strong> from Sweden. See Brutus \u00d6stling’s blog article<\/a>\u00a0here (English translation available).<\/p>\n

And below a couple of\u00a0the landscapes I enjoy while watching the proceedings from a distance.<\/p>\n
