Endangered California Condors making a come back in the wild in the Grand Canyon.

I was lucky enough to spot this trio during one of my Rim Hikes.

Although I was not carrying proper telephoto equipment at the time, the basic C-2100uz still made an "impossible capture" somewhat possible. Next time, will be better...

The numbers on the birds help the National Park Service to monitor the Condors as they live and hopefully repopulate in the Grand Canyon. Despite the numbers on them, these are wild birds living in the wild - not zoo animals.
