Page 101 Continued California Condor 12 June - 1963 surprised to have Mr. Jantzen state that he knew nothing of this condor project and that any information they might have could not be classified as secret for it would be public property and therefore subject to public scrutiny. I then briefed Mr. Jantzen on the fact that Mr. Jantzen thought it best that we have the National Audubon Society write Mr. Jantzen, or the Director in Sacramento, Mr. Shannon, apprising him of the content of this study, and then Mr. Shannon could notify Mr. Jantzen regarding what was to be done the Department of Fish and Game in helping the study along. I then notified Mr. Jantzen that Mr. Shannon had long since been notified of the aspects of the condor study and that he had already thought Mr. Shannon had notified him (Mr. Jantzen) of such. Mr. Jantzen then stated that it was possible he may have gotten a letter from Director Shannon advising him the condor survey and that it could have slipped his memory. Both Jantzen and Mr. Fillmore then became quite friendly and communicative and the next 20 minutes were spent in discussing Condor - Tote Goats - Falconry and Bird banding the use of hair nets or any nets. We left Los Angeles at 4:15 P.M., drove to The Saugus Junction where we checked the dead pit again at Newhall Land & Cattle Co. at being 5:00 P.M. as we drove to the dead pit - no buzzards were about although he did see several high in the air flying away from the pit area and two buzzards were seen circling on the hill above the we drove to Fillmore and up Sespe Valley to Cow Spring where we spent the night, Pood Checked today -
