Return of the Condors

Nope..this is not on the famous wushu novel by Jin Yung. It's on the Andean condor spotting while in Peru at Colca Canyon. To be able to spot the condors at their natural habitat, we had to wake up at 5 in the morning and drove a few kilometres to the spot. Usually, the condors will be out hunting around 8 in the morning. We were lucky as within minutes of arriving at canyon, we could see many condors cruising along the Colca Canyon.
