Amazing capture, Larry! I don’t remember seeing a close shot of a condor. I hope everything goes well.

Thanks for the link. Pray it makes it. We saw wild ones when we lived in N. CA in the early ’60s. Didn’t know until later that they were endangered We weren’t very knowledgeable about birds (or much of anything at all) back then.

@Rajesh and Theresa I wish I had taken this photo but it was taken at the Condor Ridge exhibit of the San Diego Wild Animal Park by Chuck Szmurlo. I have still never seen a California Condor but hope to see one in the wild sometime this year!
