Description
Condor flying in the Colca canyon in Peru.
Condor is the common name for two species of New World vultures, each in a monotypic genus. The name derives from the Quechua kuntur.] They are the largest flying land birds in the Western Hemisphere.
Both condors are very large broad-winged soaring birds, the Andean condor being 5 cm shorter (beak to tail) on average than the northern species, but larger in wingspan. California condors are the largest flying land birds in North America. The Andean condor is second only to the wandering albatross (up to 3.5 m) in terms of wingspan among all living flying birds
