June 19, 1946 Santa Ynez Valley, Calif. Left Paradise Camp & drove to Las Pritos large station. There talked with "Stubby" Mansfield, assistant ranger, whom I had known before at Cuyama R.S. He said that last summer there was a young cordon which would perch near Big Pine 20 & was fed by adult. Later there were 2 young ones. The feeding even took place in the "yard" of the lookout. A mule was killed near the lookout by Nash-Baugh for cordon bait. Mansfield saw 26 cordons at and around this mule carcass, 2 coyotes, 41 golden eagle, when visiting the area with another man. He estimates the time as October 1945. He said he had taken a couple of plane flights over the area looking for a lost plane & had seen 2 cordons near Mission Pine then. Then drove on to West Big Pine Lookout and met Norrie Boyce & her husband, the former the lookout, the latter writing a book. They were also up here last year. Mrs. Boyce read me the following mis- formation from Sealog: June 11, 1945 - one running on
