Birds


We thought you might be interested in some of the birds we’ve seen down here.
 One of the most interesting is the Andean Condor.
It’s a kind of vulture with a wing span of about 9 feet. We saw one circling really high.
                                                                            

We also saw a caracara
Which I thought looked
Like a funny chicken.


Other birds seen in our campsite were Buff-necked Isbis’












.                                                                                                                        



























Once, while driving down a gravel road, we saw an eagle and it's chick



In southern Argentina we
Saw acres and acres of sheep.
Mixed in with them were rheas,
which looked like an ostrich to us.



 We saw lots and lots of Gulls.




Penguins are cute.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
Flamingos were common.

 Look ma, a chicken.
