Navajo Bridge, Arizona
Navajo Bridge is the name of twin steel span arch bridges that cross the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon National Park near Lees Ferry. Unremarkable in themselves, the arches have become a popular tourist attraction because a couple of critically endangered California Condors have been introduced in the area in 1991 and made the location their home. They have a 10ft wingspan and are the largest birds in North America.
(Apologies for poor photo quality of some images - several were taken as snapshots from an old video!!!)
