Condor Cliff

Trapped in the most beautiful place on Earth, what's a fearless birder to do?Equipped with her Sibley Guide, explorer hat and trusty binoculars, Amanda Byrd fearlessly pursues the most elusive winged species, solving a few problems along the way. Following on her late husband's footsteps, she explores a beautiful canyon, among a gaggle of tourists led by Ed, a native guide working under a nasty boss.
As a majestic California condor swoops overhead, Amanda discovers that their group has been trapped at the bottom with no way to climb back up the cliff. Who did it, and why? Our distinguished birder must find an answer and a way out before the sun turns the canyon into a mortal cauldron... A spirited 8000-word story introducing the fearless and feisty Lady Byrd, written by Michèle Laframboise, multi-award winner author and amateur ornithologist.
