Califomia condor Eben Mcmillan 12 October 1963 The National Audubon Society, Conservation Resource Center at 2426 Bancroft Way, Berkeley 4, California sent me today, in the mail, a postcard that had been mailed them on 30 September 1963, which confirmed an observation made by one John Rensberger, Museum Scientist, Paleontology, RM.3, Earth Science Bldg., University of Calif. Berkeley 4, Calif. of a young condor feeding on carrion on the highway approximately halfway between Logan Butte and Brothers in central Oregon. "It's plumage was dark except for its tail, indicating a young bird!" so stated Mr. John Rensberger in this card. Jake Martins of La Panza Ranch told me today that Bud Zimmerman had seen three condor up the river above the La Panza Ranch house about five weeks ago. I will check on this tomorrow.
