California condors are one of the most endangered bird species in the United States. They're considered "Critically Endangered," which is one step away from them being extinct in the wild. They have an incredibly small range that covers small sections of California, Arizona, and Utah, and there are only around 500 of the birds still alive, both in the wild and in captivity. There are so few of the condors left that you'd be hard-pressed to find even a single one of them, but one woman in Tehachapi, California managed to find over a dozen, and she didn't even have to leave home.

As AP reports, Cinda Mickols recently discovered that her rural home had become a prime perch location for an entire group of condors. An estimated 15 to 20 of the birds have spent the past several days taking up residence at the home where they perch on the roof, railings, and porch. The birds, which are strictly protected by law, have caused quite a bit of damage to the home, and the homeowner is both awed and a bit frustrated at the event.
