I live in a small village in the Valais Alps, close to Evolène. I have already had the opportunity to observe and film the Bearded vulture on the other side of the Rhône but what was not my surprise to see him pass by my home twice this winter.

A few days ago, it was not one, but two Bearded vultures who passed in front of my windows in the middle of the day, turning in the slope above the village and returning for nearly half an hour.

Here are some photos taken on the spot. I will be forgiven, I hope, a slight blur on some, due to the excitement of the moment.

Nikon CoolPix P900.
