Even more Dorothy!

I really can't get enough of Dorothy the Andean condor. She's just so pretty and BIG! Here's a little clip of Dorothy cleaning out her bowl after a training session:



At three years of age, young Dorothy hasn't molted into her adult plumage, but her juvenile feathers are beautiful and varied shades of brown.

She is very beautiful. When do they usually molt their juvenile feathers?? Are these birds the ones that are endangered due to lead bullets?

Thanks for the video.

Your friend in Indiana!
