That condor has more heart and definitely a lot more brain than I would have thought.

Another reminder that animals have souls. They can certainly love.
Condors are truly magnificent in flight.

that bird is playing the extremely-long game.

The condor was nursed back to health by the man after the bird fell from his mother's nest as a baby.
And the condor clearly didn't forget his rescuer, as video footage shows the pair greeting each other with hugs and one big warm embrace, after the condor returned.
After being rescued, the condor the largest bird in North America was then able to learn how to fly and return to normal life.
It is not unusual for the condor to fly back and visit its rescuer, and according to locals the bird is said to return to visit the man fairly frequently.
