Arizona condor


We saw a pair of Condors hunting in the Canyon. I noticed one from far away and guessed that it was a Condor. We passed a cowboy leading tourists on mules and he confirmed my guess. He told us that if we were lucky, we could watch the condor catch a mouse or other prey. We were not that lucky. We could see the tags on the Condor's wing and could also hear the sound of the wings flapping. I'm not a bird watcher but I was truly amazed at the size and the grace of the Condor.
