The Griffon Vulture Observatory of Gamla, Golan Heights.

Here you can see a large nesting population of Griffon vultures, the largest flock of Griffon vultures in Israel. In the morning, the birds fly off and in the afternoon they return to their nests, flying directly overhead. It is not allowed to approach the cage, although you can see them while walking through the vulture path. About 40 vulture pairs nest in the cliffs of the Gamla.
