00:27 One of the world's least appreciated scientists is the ornithologist, or egg collector to you,
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 the giant condor egg.
00:47 [Music]
00:56 Once the nest is sighted, the egg collector's trouble really begins.
01:00 [Music]
01:03 Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, look at that beauty.
01:07 [Music]
01:10 Shut up!
01:12 [Music]
01:16 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.
01:24 [Music]
01:44 One should not be too hasty in selecting a hiding place, for one may find oneself in a very hot spot.
01:51 [Music]
02:05 Two, one looks fine so far.
02:09 Two.
02:11 [Music]
02:14 One, one.

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
02:54 and teaches him to fly.
02:57 [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,
03:54 he comes in for his landing with all the self-assurance of a veteran pilot.

05:01 [Music]
05:23 If the mother condor shows favoritism, there's bound to be jealousy.

06:09 The egg collector often finds himself in a predicament which calls for strategy,
06:14 and he must even use a decoy.
06:17 [Music]
06:23 [Music]
06:51 At last, the egg collector triumphantly...
06:56 [Music]

07:46 [Music]
07:50 So you can see how difficult it is to get the egg without getting the bird.
