Σταύρο, είσαι βέβαιος ότι είναι γύπας? Επειδή πρόσφατα πήγα στην περιοχή, έμαθα ότι πετούν πολλές "σκάρες" (μοιάζουν πολύ με αετούς).

Winter scenery of the Libyan Sea is much different than the summer one, right?

No need to show my face; hovever the size of the blades is something that must be shown!

(And these generators are only 600kW each! - you can find generators of 4MW)

These birds are not "γύπες" (vultures), they are either eagles or σκάρες (skares), a local name for a kind of bird that resembles much to eagle.

Vultures are much larger, and if you can see them flying they fly in groups and they are circling above a certain spot, and this is because on this spot an animal has died, or is about to die.

These birds here are hunting for livestock. They are the same an all my three photos (500 mm lens)

The photo was shot Dec 14, 2008, on a very clear day. You can see the "L" shaped building on the right side, as well as the start of the non paved road. Lens is 12mm (wide angle).

With this (and the photo), one can understand how clear the air is in December (photo was shot 20-25 Dec). What you can see o the photo is 45 km away!

Next 3 photos (Gogle Earth snapshots) show the exact spot and angle of view.
