Klepto the Condor is always circling the course, though in the first mission, he is carrying a Power Star. In order to obtain the Power Star, the player needs to stand on top of one of the pillars in the course and wait for Klepto to fly over it. Once he's in position, the player needs to jump at Klepto, which will make him drop the star and have it land on the west side of the pyramid between the two pillars. If the Wing Cap has been unlocked, the player can fly into Klepto to obtain the Power Star.
