Note California condor Eben McMillan 25 October 1963 Paired birds the condor seen this morning traveled in pairs. This gives rise To thought that these are mated pairs that although gathering Together to feed, and roost, nevertheless maintain an association Together most of the time. Shooting Two rifle shots were heard high up on mountain to the North of Tunis Canyon at 10:58 A.m. Condor — At 11:00 A.M. Two condors were seen circling high about One- half mile North of where Tunis Canyon breaks out of the main mountain mass. They soon drifted out of sight into the Smog. An immature Golden Eagle was seen throughout the morning circling about the Tunis and El Paso Creek areas. At 1:50 P.M. Two Golden Eagles came out of Pastoria Canyon and circled for several minutes above where I was at about the 3000 foot level on the Southwest side of Pastoria Canyon near where the main range fronts out over the valley below. A pair of Red Tailed Hawks passed these two Eagles while they circled. Two groups of men were working in the area west of the mouth of Pastoria Canyon. They were constructing cattle guards for the new road that will go in here shortly coming from Grapevine Station, on highway 99, to the site in Pastoria Canyon where tunnel construction will soon commence for Feather River Water Enroute to Los Angeles. From Bakersfield I called both Dillard Pittman who attends cattle for Mendiburu on west slope of Breckenridge Mountain and Andy Charlton who does the same for Ken Mebane on the Southwest foothills of Breckenridge Mountain. Neither of these fellows had seen Condor this fall.
