Minerva (881) is named after the strong and authoritative deputy headmistress in the Harry Potter series. This bird takes no sass from the others and is not afraid to assert her authority. She was often seen perching next to Narcissa (889) while the two were awaiting their cohort’s release into the wild. Minerva is a talented flier, like her Harry Potter character counterpart. If there was condor Quidditch, she would be the star seeker.
In the wild, Minerva (881) behaves with the confidence of a condor that knows her worth but doesn’t like to stir-up unnecessary trouble. Now that she has reached breeding age, she has paired with the most dominant bird in Big Sur, Shadow (209). Their first nesting attempt was in 2024 and the outcome remains to be seen. Minerva (881) is a first-time-mother but Shadow (209) has a lot of experience when it comes to being a dad. We are hopeful that this recent match will result in a healthy and strong addition to the central California flock!
