California Condor. Eban McMILLIAN 11 July 1963 Breakfasted with the Smiths and then drove to Lumreau, the name given her summer retreat on Lumreau Creek by Edna Williams. This remarkable 84 year old lady who lives alone in this remote area, came to the door and invited me into her small home, at my knock on her door. Mrs. Williams taught school in the Granite Station area in 1903-04 and 05. She remembers seeing Condor regularly in those years. She said that Sheep were driven through the Granite Station area in late spring heading for the mountains. Any lambs dropped along this trail was left behind to die. Condor came to feed on these dead lambs. Cattle in those years were of little value and exact care was lacking- many Cattle died, she said, making ample food for Condor. IN 1952, according to Edna Williams, Dr. Elliot McClure saw 32 Condor in one flock in the Rancherie area at the foot of Rattlesnake grade some 6 or 7 miles southwest of Oak Flat Lookout. Although being a lifelong student of birds, and having been responsible for developing a strong interest in wildlife and its preservation among the people about her, Edna Williams still lacks much of the fundamental knowledge necessary for a strong argument in favor of allowing wildlife a place in the plan of things to come. With this, those such as Mrs. Williams would be a potent force in the preservation of all wildlife and rare species such as Condor in particular. Mr. and Mrs. Freeland Tavensworth, who operate a purebred polled Hereford Operation south of Glenville about three miles, are very interested in Nature and seem to know Condor quite well, I had heard from
