Meanings of andean condor in English

Around the summit glides an Andean condor, never flapping its 11-foot wingspan.

The Andean condor is huge... wingspan can reach 3 m (10 ft).

That reminded me about some photographs of Andean condors from my work in Patagonia that I've been meaning to post.

Finally, the photo below is from earlier this year and is the best close-up I have of a Andean condor not flying.

Concentrating on birds that are in their element on the wing, the Andean condor is often named as the largest flying bird.

He once spent two weeks in a bird blind in his native Chile to capture striking footage of a rarely seen Andean condor.

Because Andean condors like to take advantage of rising warm air to soar, you typically find them along mountainsides and big vertical cliff faces.
