Condor Nests & Chicks
March 19, 2010. Condor 514, the fledgling from last year's nest at the RS Bar Guest Ranch, made it to the park for the first time today. Departure from its natal area is an excellent sign that the wild-hatched bird is maturing and becoming an integral part of the region's condor flock.
March 8, 2010. Condors 317 and 318 have paired up this year and chose a nest site within the Monument. This is only the second nest in the program's six year history and is the first verified nest in the Monument in over 100 years.
