California condors were spotted nesting in the northern part of the state! They are seen for the first time in more than 100 years! – According to scientists. It was on Monday, the condor couple was found displaying typical nesting behavior inside a hollowed-out redwood tree in Big Sur, Ventana Wildlife Society informed Tuesday.

The conservationists and environmentalists are the happiest people to hear this news, as scientists have worked for years to bring the condor back from the brink of extinction.
