00:27 One of the world's least appreciated scientists is the ornithologist, or egg collector to use,
00:35 whose trail penetrates the wildest and most difficult of mountains, the Andes.
00:41 Let us observe this brave scientist as he goes in search of a giant condor egg.
00:47 [Music]
00:56 Once the nest is sighted, the egg collector's trouble really begins.

01:15 Care should be taken to remove the egg during the mother's absence.
01:20 If this is not accomplished, it becomes necessary to seek cover.

02:47 The big moment in the life of a baby condor is when his mother takes him from the nest for the very first time and teaches him to fly.
02:56 [Music]
03:09 Sometimes storm clouds appear without a moment's notice.
03:13 [Music]
03:24 A great deal of urging is sometimes needed to get the young condor off the limb.
03:29 [Music]

03:49 But once the fledgling gets the feel of the wind in his wings, he comes in for his landing with all the self-assurance of a veteran pilot.
