Condors near our ranch!
Hi all,
My Wife and I took this pic from our car on the road back to our ranch during a day trip up to the observatory. It was the 1st sighting we've had of
real live condors, wow what magnificent flyers! Since living up here for the last 2 months we've seen loads of predatory birds, golden eagles, and a
resident great horned owl in our oak forest!

Hey there Ferna!
Hope you and your family can come up to stay for a while, I have both of my telescopes up here now, so the best time would be during a new moon or
last quarter. The milky way here is spectacular!
saludos
Mike

Hola Astro! I was telling Baja Angel about what you were doing without realizing you have done it already! I hope the irrigation system is working the
way you planned! We would love to see your place!! Campo Astro?

David: hola! Well we're not quite yet at Concepcion, the wonderful folks at Meling are letting us stay in our travel trailer until we get our 6 km
road in good enough shape to pull it in. The house foundation is in and work on putting up the adobe walls starts soon. We have put off doing power
until later, so the microhydro is still in the final tweaking of the design phase.
If all goes well we should be living up here in a couple weeks, come out and spend a few days!

BajaHawk: this pic was taken at about the 75km point on the observatory road up to San Pedro Martir park, but we can see them flying along the cliffs
from our place at Concepcion usually once a week!
