Griffins tend to come along and replace certain other monsters that cause the "Ambush" quest to trigger. For example, on the way out of windbluff tower towards the hillfigure knoll, there's normally a cyclops on the road, sometimes the griffin will replace him (cyclops won't be there.)

This happens to the cyclops who's just outside gran soren near the little pond too (this griffin will normally attack you while you're battling the thieves on the road heading north from the south entrance of gran soren.)

The first instance of "wild" griffins that aren't the one from bluemoon tower generally start showing up right after that griffin from bluemoon raids the ox caravan just outside the south entrance to gran soren.
