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,
