I live in California and I was fishing at a lake and seen a giant tree covered with probably about 50 condors. Then suddenly they all flew off at once and created this constant great giant swooshing tone that I can say sounded almost like a helicopter in the distance minus the tone of the engines. The giant tree shook as if there was a storm, as they all flew higher and higher up the mountain. Never seen anything like that ever again, just the occasional flock high in the sky circling. Glad I was able to witness it.

Those were probably turkey vultures, not condors. Given there are only like 500-600 currently in the wild, and were only 20-30 back in the 1980s. Your chances of having seen 50 of a critically endangered solitary species in a single tree is highly unlikely. Turkey vultures on the other hand are everywhere and are usually seen together in large groups.

5:10 collectors don't normally collect bird bones because in ornithology speciation occurs when birds start to develop plumage different from the parent species (also different vocalizations in most birds especially passerines). While in mammalogy, speciation occurs when a mammal start to to have morphological differences from its parent species, i.e. differences occurring in its skeletal anatomy. That's why all grouse are considered different species from one another since they all have distinct plumages (sage, ruffed, praire chicken, sooty, etc.) While Columbian-blacktail and mule deer are considered the same species albeit a subspecies of the other because they have no morphological differences even though they have visual differences. Thus collecting only the plumage of birds is more informational to an ornithologist than bones. This is opposite to a mammalogist, although most collectors still collect the furs to distinguish between subspecies and to know how a mammal looks like.

I assume the “floofy neck” does the same job as the fluff on a spear. Spears have that fluff to stop blood from dripping down to your hands and making them slip. So the floof neck probably stops most of the blood and germs from getting down on the body where it’s harder to clean off.

The naked heads are more likely a thermoregulatory adaptation, considering these species experience drastic temperature shifts between soaring and being on/near the ground. The head is pulled in during flight to preserve heat and helps keep them cool on the ground, where it is much hotter. There are plenty other scavenging birds (and you know...mammals...) that do not have naked heads, and they're completely fine despite getting covered in gore and blood regularly.

Exactly! That ruff on the neck is to keep the head warm while flying at high altitudes. It's also why vultures are able to scavenge inland in warm regions, but inland gulls (not counting Great Lakes) can only be found in Canada.

Fun factoid about birds of prey, I did falconry for a while and I can attest to the fact that the back talon is very good at spearing through your skin 😂😵 What's interesting though is that they don't apply less pressure from their front three stabilising talons, the front and back talons grab equally. I used to think that they mainly just tightened the back one. And the longer the back talon is the better chance it has at hitting vital organs when catching prey

I have a few questions: 1.how can someone preserve a brittle exhibit? I think anybody who has at least some knowledge knows that at some point things get a bit dicey with how Well for example hairs and feathers hold up on skin 2. Is there a method that leaves an exhibit more flexible than formaldehyde? This question is about full body preservation. 3.how is a broken preservated animal handled? How and what can/can't be repaired? 4.what would happen to a bird in formaldehyde? I have seen this only once with blackbird hatchlings that were a few days old. What happens to the feathers? Will they also discolor that heavily and take the shade of mud? 5. What can be done with an cadaver of advanced decay besides an skelletal preservation? Im only interested and with that only with one foot inside the preservation scene...i once tried in an internship with an taxidermist on how to make one of these bird preservations on an pigeon that died an natural death...Well...im already rambling of into nowhere...have a nice day...

The bald head is actually not just because of them eating dead stuff. It actually has a lot to do with thermal regulation! This is also why they have such beautiful floof collars, as well. Many vultures (including condors) are extremely high flying birds, but they feed on the ground, where it can get very hot. They frequently experience massive, fast temperature swings. Stretching out their heads versus pulling them into the feather collar help them regulate their temperature extremely well. DISGUSTING? Condors are the cutest and most beautiful! They're very smart too (along with other vultures) and have a ton of personality. I got to work with an Andean condor, and he was an amazing guy, and hilarious. I would be absolutely chuffed to be able to bring my sketchbook and do studies of specimens in a place like this. So cool.
