It's great to see Iniko doing well! Her mother, Redwood Queen, has a new mate and a new chick this year. ❤

Only good , beautiful things to see are Animals and nature. Splendid creatures, CONDORS ! ❤❤❤

Iniko and Redwood Queen together ❤❤❤❤ I like to see again

This is such a wonderful sight! Inoko’s rescue was a riveting and beautiful story and Redwood Queen’s resilience over the past years is impressive .

Awww precious Iniko❤ the miracle baby survivor 💞 probably doesn't even know her amazingly brave mom is right there with her❤

Pretty impressive Zenith pose!

Beautiful to see all three at the watering hole and with other condors. The beautiful heraldic pose from Zenith was special to see. I am sure seeing their reflections in the water is interesting to each of them. When you first introduced me to the nest before the fire, I did some reading about the different condors and the beautiful decorative collars different species wear. They are such a beautiful and unique giant bird. Thank you again, Lady Hawk - you enrich our lives always! Seeing the California Condors again is such a treasure. 🩷L

Great Cam work by explore with great Cams on site. I'm not a Sanctuary Condor guy , but plenty to watch and view for those who are. I hope RQ lives to be 60 +. Good to see her and New mate Zenith at Pond.

Hello Winston! Thank you for watching this condor video! Good Morning! ♥Redwood Queen is a wonderful Mother - it will be something to see her with her new chick and once it fledges - see them here in the sanctuary together! That won't be until the end of the year - they are like Albatross and take a long time to fledge (about 7 months) and then the chick stays with the parents for the next year (the condors skip a year in breeding like the albatross too) I hope you enjoy watching them! TC and Have a great Thursday! 🐦🐥💐🌷

I'm a Big fan of Iniko. If hatched in 2019--it means she turns 5 yrs old this yr and is eligible to take a mate and start a family--although she may wait for 'Right Time' to do that. She has survived such a traumatic Childhood--Dolan fire & 729 (Ninja) attacking her in the nest & trip to LA zoo for injuries among others. To me, no matter how many Condors she takes up with and where she ends up in Condor life--She will Always be "Daddy's(#167) little girl to me---Co piloting the Kingpin Ship around the Nest, peeking out from under dad's wing. Imprinting can go both ways, Can't it ? I don't believe i'm a Condor but Also don't believe i'm the same Human who found this Nest couple and shared their wonderful Chick with them. Part of my heart beats with love for a Bird species that invented the words 'Affectionate& Loving' --Values they impart to their offspring. L H. Thanks for Posting.

Great news! Thanks so much! ❤

Hello Janice yes Iniko "her name meaning Born In Troubled Times" is the chick that survived miraculously the Dolan fire that killed her Dad Kingpin #167. She is 5 years old now and doing well in the sanctuary and among the other condors!

At my first look at the waterhole, I felt a twinge of sorrow for Kingpin. He was such a wonderful dad and partner for Redwood Queen. He made her Queen by selecting her as his partner. It did my heart good to see Iniko so healthy, and confident. Her size was surprising to me because she has grown so much. The Rangers rebuilt the station beautifully. It is amazing. Thank you @Lady Hawk for showing this to me. I'm saving it. Congratulations on your 100K and your KZread silver arrow plaque! It looks as if Zenith will treat Redwood Queen ok. Congratulations on their little one.

Hello Elimila they are really interesting raptors to watch! Because of the Dolan fire that swept through the Condor sanctuary in 2019, the cam and all cables melted along with many of the trees. Iniko was in that cavity you see in my video about a week ago - so we don't have that view any longer. But if you have some extra time, I would encourage you to view some of the past videos in my playlist Big Sur Condors or CA Condors or Tom's Canyon Condors. Your question is a very good one! California Condors are scavenger birds - they primarily feed on carrion, which includes the remains of large mammals like deer, cattle, and sheep. They are also known to eat smaller prey such as rabbits, rodents, and even insects. Their scavenging habits play a crucial role in maintaining the ecosystem by cleaning up decaying carcasses. So they have a non feathered head for hygiene purposes so they can put their head into the dead animal carcass and not get dirty. Then they go to a body of water and will rub their head and neck on rocks or grass and dry and fluff its feathers out to maintain its cleanliness! They also have a strong immune system so they don't get sick from eating decaying food. Nature is amazing isn't it? TC and I hope you have a great day ♥

Hello pjb yes the parents do recognize their chicks! But once they are in a new breeding season - their focus is on the new chick and not previous chicks. When Iniko was released after she was rehabbed for her injury, she and Redwood Queen did reunite!

Do we know what happened to the condor who was missing one leg? 🙏🏼

Do you have any updates about the Toms Canyon condor pair that raised a chick in 2022? I miss them!

They are very endangered. Only around 500 birds in the world. They are wild birds. The sanctuary is a place where they can find lead free food. Lead kills condors and other birds of prey.
