Extract fromt he firs book in the Talon series, TALON, COME FLY WITH ME

On their way home, Crayn remarked, ‘Oh, yes, we will help the condors as they are amazing, re-markable and extraordinary birds.

I wonder < hmm, I really wonder. ...We have seen the condors only for the last three years and we’ve never seen
young birds flying with them. And we heard the poachers only last year.’
‘What are you getting at?’
‘Well, this pair must be young and must have come from a different part of the Andes and settled here. Maybe it was their first egg last year? But how do the poachers know that?’
‘You really mean that?’ Matica said, excited. A smile played around her mouth.
