Condor Park

Driving north from Quito, Ecuador, we saw the sign for Parque Condor just in time to turn off the Panamerican Highway.  Flying demonstrations were to begin at 11:30.  Our first birds in the park were the magnificent Andean condors.






  











A small audience watched the flying demonstrations.  Some of the raptors flew away for long periods of time.




















About 15 different owls were housed in large individual aviary enclosures.










A small interpretive center compared feathers, nests, and eggs






The Parque Condor was an interesting place to spend a couple of hours.
