California Condor Eben McMillan 4 November 1963 James Lacy, whose address is 30+59, Frazier Park, California, told me that within the last month condor forms had been circulated to his camp, and orders given him, that all condor sightings were to be recorded from now on until notified differently differently. Mr. Lacy, and his wife, have been stationed at Gold Hill for the last year and a-half, except for the winter months, when they stay at the Chuckupate Ranger Camp. Even though Mr. Lacy had been ordered to report condor sightings he knew nothing of the present condor study. Mr. Lacy thought he noticed that any condor, he had noted, of late, that were approaching him, upon seeing him, would turn about and go the opposite direction from that which were coming. When Mr. Lacy first went to work for the U.S. Forest Service, about one and one-half years ago, he was sent to the Thorn Point Lookout for a week. He saw condor while there, and became able to identify them there. He said that the man who stayed at Thorn Point Lookout last year (1962) had a list of condor observations he kept for himself, but that he was not ordered to keep any condor records for the Forest Service at that time. He said all his condor sighting reports on the Alamo mountain area, within the last month, will be sent into the Chuckupate Office every month. Mr. Lacy said he saw a large black bird in Hungry Valley two weeks ago that was much larger than a Golden Eagle. He said he was not aware that young condor do not have a red head how much white under the wings at some stages.
