California Condors in Big Sur

Big Sur is blessed with incredible bio-diversity and is home to several rare and endangered species. You will begin with a presentation at Big Sur Station, including an “old-school” slide show with images collected by your instructor over decades of field research and study, and a discussion about condor biology. Then you will take the beautiful drive south on Highway 1 to Big Sur coast to view condors from the Big Sur introduction population and enjoy a day of learning about, and searching for, the majestic California Condor. Known to nest in this location, this is a prime viewing area for adult condors and their young. The location is also a main migratory raptor route so sightings of owls, hawks and other large birds of prey are common.
