As I have mentioned before, I spend alot of time at the San Diego Wild Animal Park near my home in the San Diego area. The park has a very active California Condor breeding and release program that is contributing to the comeback of these great raptors. Thought I'd show one of the products of this program here. Not many find alot of beauty in the specialized head of carrion eating scavengers, but I can appreciate it here. This is a youngster as evidenced by the grayish down on its head.
