Over the weekend ~15 California condors descended on my moms house and absolutely trashed her deck. They still haven’t left. It sucks but also this is unheard of, there’s only 160 of these birds flying free in the state and a flock of them decided to start a war with my mom 😭
Just got off the phone with mom. So, tho those that know her will all agree she is one of the strongest women ever. But I’m even more in awe knowing that my tiny little mom was staring down a bunch of birds half her size from less than 10 ft away trying to shoo them away
Happy Mother’s Day mom, hope you like the condors 😂😭
She does think this is pretty amazing but also the worst. They don’t have to leave her property but leave the house alone. They keep hanging out on her roof and railings messing with stuff and pooping everywhere. Trees are fine but not the house please 🙏
Checked in with mom, they’re still hanging out ominously on one of her trees but thankfully are not on the house at the moment. She’s reaching out to some condor groups to alert them so they can observe the birds and maybe help keep them off her house
Tho tbh how does one convince 20 large birds to do anything lol
I'm cracking up! US fisheries and wildlife twitter has responded with tips for politely hazing the birds away from the house, and condor groups are offering assistance. This person's mother was just adopted by ten percent of the state's highly endangered California condor population and it turns out, they're birds. By which I mean, assholes full of spite and hubris.
