This video from California in the USA says about itself:
Active Condor Chick Flaps Wings and Nibbles Plant – July 6, 2017
Watch the Devil’s Gate condor chick exercise its wings atop a rock and nibble on the stem of a nearby plant. As chicks gets older, they spend more time exercising. Watch for more wing flapping, leaping about, and capturing and carrying away objects found around the nest.

About the Nest
This condor nest, known as the Devil’s Gate nest, is located in the Los Padres National Forest, near Hopper Mountain National Wildlife Refuge. The parents of the chick in the Devil’s Gate nest are mom #513 and dad #206. Dad #206 hatched at the Los Angeles Zoo in 1999 and mom #513 hatched at the World Center for Birds of Prey in Boise Idaho in 2009. This is their third nesting attempt together but they have yet to successfully fledge a chick.
Nice. Kind of quick, though. 😀
