the world is bad and i need good news where i can get it so it was very moving for me to see california condors fly in yurok skies again for the first time since 1892 yesterday morning.

(here is a video of the event if you want to see these birds come home.)

#the yurok tribe is very often looked over and dismissed during discussions of condor conservation (gee wonder why) #and this is such a wonderful historic moment that came from their activism and stewardship #this has been building for awhile and i'm so happy the day has finally come. the condors are home.
