With wings that can stretch to almost three metres long, the California condor is the largest flying
bird found in America. The huge condor is mostly black with big white wing patterns. It has no feathers on its head. It is a scavenger, which means it eats dead animals. Unlike its close relative, the vulture, which is rare, the California condor finds food by sight rather than by smell. The California condor is also an endangered bird. This means it is rare and needs help to survive. These birds became rare because the dead animals they feed on often contain lead, a kind of metal, which is dangerous for the birds. Today, there are only about 230 California condors left in the wild. Scientists are working hard to make sure these birds survive.

She chased the mouse and almost caught it, until she saw a rabbit hop by. She stopped chasing the mouse and began chasing the rabbit. “Silly Frieda. Why did you do that?” asked her dad. “Dad! A rabbit would have been a bigger and better catch.” Her dad just shook his head. The next day they went hunting again. Frieda did the same thing except this time she stopped chasing a rabbit to chase a chicken. She came home with neither. When they got back, all of Frieda’s brothers and sisters had a catch. Frieda sat by herself in the back and pouted. She almost had the chicken and the rabbit, but instead she came home with neither. The next day, Frieda went hunting alone.

You finally got it!”
