Hi Tweeters,

This was a nice read! Very interesting to learn about the endeavors taken
to ensure the survival of the species.
I ran the Grand Canyon today and had a chance to ask a ranger if any
condors had been sighted recently. Unfortunately I was not able to see one
this time, but I still remember in 2019 when I saw one soaring high above
the South Kaibab trail. They are huge! No accidentally thinking they are a
vulture.

Cheers,
Jenny
