White Stork Migration in the Strait of Gibraltar
Every year more than 130.000 white storks cross the Strait of Gibraltar in their way to Africa. They congregate in large numbers before crossing, sometimes building up flocks of a few thousands, being the largest recorded flock of 7000 storks. July and August is the peak migration time for this species, an amazing spectacle to be experienced.

Eurasian Griffon swimming in the Strait of Gibraltar
A flock of 36 Griffons crossed the Strait from Morocco to Spain. As they approached the shore, two vultures couldn't reach it and fell into the water.
We saw one of them drowning while, the other fought to reach some rocks, and succeeded as it shows in the video. After a while drying out its wings the vulture took off and completed the crossing without further problems.

This video shows the spring migration back from Africa of the Short-toed Eagle (Circaetus gallicus) across the Strait of Gibraltar. The Strait of Gibraltar is the most important bottleneck in the migration of this species between Europe and Africa. Sea-crossing is a vital challenge for this soaring raptor, often hampered by territorial Yellow-legged Gulls.
