Redwood nestling doing well
Veterinarian Amy Wells conducts a physical exam on 799
60 day old Condor Nestling 799 (Chick of Condors #167 and #190) passed his first nest check with flying colors! Biologists tested his blood for lead poisoning, did a physical check, and checked the nest for trash and all looked well with 799. Great job Mom and Dad! Stay tuned...799's final nest check is schedule for the end of August. We have 5 wild nestlings still going strong this year, let's hope they stay out of harms way and continue to succeed.
