Era temprano en la mañana, hacÃa frÃo y nos esperaba una larga caminata por delante, cuando de entre las nubes aparecieron dos grandes Cóndores, curiosos dieron varias vueltas sobre nuestras cabezas, y luego se perdieron en la distancia. Entre que saque la cámara y tomé la foto ya casi se habian escapado...
ENGLISH: "The Cóndor´s flyby..." It was a cold autum morning and we were facing a long walk ahead, when suddenly two large Condors showed up flying between the clouds, after several minutes circling above us they ended up disapearing in the distance. In the time it took me to get the camera to take the photo, they were almost gone...

Here's another from my AZ loop in March 2024 to see the California Condors. I still have 1800 images left to work through, but this stood out as a huge favorite, especially after I had ID'd the two as a mated pair, from other images. A previous post told their precious story. What a joy to see them fly together, and let's not forget the 9-foot wingspan. So flying together, that's like 18 feet vertical in this image. K6 the male, L4 the lovely female.

Tive a felicidade de poder fotografar o Condor Andino (Vultur gryphus), ​ também conhecido como Condor dos Andes ou simplesmente Condor. Este é um macho, pousado em uma escarpa do Lago Argentino, em El Calafate, Patagônia Argentina, aos pés dos Andes. Tenho também uma foto dele em pleno voo.

The nest had been abandoned but was still full of feathers. Miss Moriko made herself a crown to hide her from the condors and then settled down for a little sleep in her new home <3

A California Condor sits in the morning sun patiently waiting for me to die so he can eat me. This condor, number 30, is a male that was released from captive breeding in 2009. The California condor is one of the most rare birds in the world to see with a population of ~260 in the wild and another ~200 in captivity. In the late 70s the population nearly went extinct with the total number dropping to 27. The leading cause of their death is ingesting lead from bullet fragments in the carcasses they're eating.

Fortaleza - Pinto Martins Int'l Airport (FOR/SBFZ)

The beautiful Condor 767 pushes back for the flight back to FRA, under a great sunset light! One of my favorite Condor pics for sure!!! :D
Unfortunately, Condor is ceasing operations in Brazil, and this was their penultimate flight here in Fortaleza. Their operations at Recife have already ended, and we'll have their last flight on September 29th. Very sad! They serve Fortaleza since June 2014.
This 767, D-ABUI, is one of the few still sporting the old, blue scheme of Condor. I like it, and I also like the new one, so I really can't decide!

The Andean condor is a massive bird of prey that lives in South America. It is the largest flying bird in the world by combined measurement of weight and wingspan. It is generally considered the largest bird of prey in the world. The Andean condor is part of the New World vultures, a group of birds more closely related to storks than to the vultures of Africa.

A giant condor , with a wingspan that can reach up to 3,5 mtrs, the largest birds of prey on earth.
This one spotted near Cuzco, Peru.
I am not a bird photographer, but to see and "shoot" this majestic birds in the wild was something else, so there it is..:-)

The California condor (Gymnogyps californianus) is a New World vulture, the largest North American land bird. This condor became extinct in the wild in 1987 (all remaining wild individuals were captured), but the species has been reintroduced to northern Arizona and southern Utah, USA.
Got a condor working over a dead squirrel.
This is Barb. Hatch date 6/14/2018 at the World Center for Birds of Prey. Didn't catch the squirrel's name.

California condors are the largest land birds in North America, and once ranged throughout much of the U.S. The arrival of humans at the end of the Pleistocene, and the subsequent disappearance of megafauna that condors depend on for food restricted their range considerably.
Condors continued to decline throughout the 19th and 20th centuries in response to mounting threats including poaching, poisoning (e.g. lead, DDT), collisions with power lines, habitat loss, and ingestion of trash.
To save the species from extinction, in 1987 all remaining wild condors were captured to establish a captive breeding program in the hopes that condors would one day be re-established. Captive-bred condors were first released into the wild in 1992, and in 2002 the species reproduced in the wild for the first time since 1984, although all chicks died near fledging. The first wild chick to survive past fledging hatched in 2003. All wild flocks are now nesting successfully, though many organizations are still involved in supplementing wild populations with captive bred birds. There are now approximately 300 wild condors.
Lead poisoning continues to be a major obstacle for condor recovery. Thankfully, a statewide ban of lead ammunition in CA is scheduled to go into effect this summer, hopefully curtailing this insidious hazard.
I had such an exhilarating experience watching the condors at Pinnacles. Here the five-year-old male 602 watches the younger bird I could never see a tag on. A lot was going on, and with the interaction I'm beginning to imagine captions. This one from the older 602 would go something like: "So, you managed to land on the topmost branch without breaking it."
During the recent Morro Bay Winter Bird Festival, I went on the field trip to the Bitter Creek Wild Life Refuge which includes the Southern California release station for the California Condors.
An uncomfortable trip, but an amazing experience once there. We had special permission to visit the station but were not permitted to get close to the actual release pen. These are a few of the free birds already released and existing in the area.
