Since Ryan Philips spotted a juvenile Condor above HWY 17 the day before, there were a few birders around - two on the dam, and another one later at the parking lot. We talked about the birds and the newts, and I invited her to join us. I hope she would! If you'd like to try and observe the Condor, Ryan thought it might be roosting with the turkey vultures around Lexington, so you could try getting there around 9 or earlier, and watch the turkeys as they start flying around. He saw it around 9 am on 6/28.
