The Andean Condor

The Andean Condor (Vultur gryphus) is found in the Andes mountains and adjacent Pacific coasts of western South America. It is one of the world’s longest-living birds, with a lifespan of up to 50 years. The wingspan ranges from 280 to 320 cm (9.2 to 10 ft).....it makes me so humble to think of such a magnificent animal...
