- The Eurasian griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus) is a large Old World vulture in the bird of prey family Accipitridae. It may also be known as the Griffon vulture, though it may be used for the genus as a whole. It is not to be confused with the Rüppell's griffon vulture (Gyps rueppellii) and Himalayan griffon vulture (Gyps himalayensis). It is closely related to the white-backed vulture (Gyps africanus).

- Support Nice close-up. --SHB2000 (talk) 05:16, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
- Comment Great close-up, indeed, but there are 3 really apparent small stray white pixels to the left of the lower part of the bird's head that should be edited out or explained. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:21, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
- Oh, didn't see that; will get to work. 20 upper 12:55, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
- Sorry, but I couldn't get it down due to technical issues, I'll do it tomorrow when the issues are resolved. 20 upper 16:50, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
- I'm happy to wait. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:02, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
- I'm not sure I got all of it. 20 upper 14:16, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
- I don't see any difference. Maybe you found some other hot pixels I hadn't seen. I'll make an image note. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:28, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

- Question Can @Alexis Lours: recover the blown highlights? Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:09, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose Blown highlights still there. ps Size error in your recent upload 20 Charlesjsharp (talk) 14:19, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
- Charlesjsharp Fixed size problem; I just downloaded the low version. I'm not sure what you mean by "blown highlights". 20 upper 14:42, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
- I've added a note - the white feathers on the bird's 'collar' are overexposed and 'blown'. Sometimes details can be recovered from the RAW file. Charlesjsharp (talk) 15:43, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
