Floridian ugliness.\" (John Steinbeck, 1940, discussing the future of La Paz, BCS, Mexico)
Good one, David. I saw one of their kind in the Balboa Park Zoo last week. They are sure big buzzards and I wish them well.
Try and get over to the San Diego Wild Animal Park... renamed San Diego Zoo Safari Park... not only condors, but lots of Boojums and Cardons growing
as you walk to the Condor Ridge exhibit. Hwy. 78, east of Escondido.
Great post. Saw one in the Inyo mountains many years ago that had strayed a bit off course. The amazing thing is that when you see one, you KNOW
what it is...they are huge!
Wow, thanks for the video! What amazing birds. I would love to be able to see one in the "wild" in Baja someday. I'm glad that they are being
reintroduced and I hope that the project goes well.
Whenever I hear that rainy, chill wind blow. I think it may be time to head for Mexico. Tengo que obedecer mi corazon!
