Summary
editDescriptionGrand Canyon National Park California Condor 350 fledged (5735623548).jpg | making it, at that time, only the fourth condor chick to successfully fledge in the wild since 1982. NPS Photo by Chad Olson. Regarded as one of the rarest birds in the world, the California condor (Gymnogyps californianus) is the largest land bird in North America with a wingspan up to 9 1/2 feet and weighing up to 23 pounds. Adults are primarily black except for triangle-shaped patches of bright white underneath their wings. These patches are visible when condors are flying overhead and offer a key identification characteristic. Males and females are identical in size and plumage. The bare heads of condors are grayish-black as juveniles and turn a dull orange-pink as adults. |
