Description


Here you see a Condor over the Grand Canyon. A few years ago there was a release programme here to try and establish a new colony. On the day I shot this there was a family of three in the area, all the birds are tagged and if you zoom you may be able to make out a tag on the far wing. You have to be lucky to see them. Jeff.

A fantastic capture and wonderful opportunity for you to see this condor Jeff. The last time I read the stats – there were only about 200 left, in the wild, in North America. Dana
