inspired from a close encounter.... while on a road trip with a friend from Brooklyn we pulled off to admire the coast some where around Big Sur.. one of these amazing creatures flew in front of us about 3 feet away... There were some awesome bird watchers & biologists to give us a brief history of the bird. Apparently they are quite endangered (biologist said there are about 20 ) it flew so close I saw the 8 on its wing tag. Up on the north coast there is a movement by the Yurok Tribe to bring them to Nor*Cal. Fingers crossed we get some of these ENORMOUS birds locally!!

We also print this on our amazing hoodies!!!
