California Condor
Gymnogyps californianus
California condors soar over mountains, canyons, and open country in search of animal carcasses. They feed mainly on carrion, using their large hooked bills to tear through hide and flesh. With a wingspan approaching three metres, they are among North America's largest flying birds and can travel great distances on rising air.
