California Condor Eben McMillan 1 February 1964 One Sheep carcass (50 pound lamb) and two Jackrabbit Carcasses were thrown out on the ridge between Soda Crick drainage and Sulphur Creek drainage, the Sheep at a spot where the end of Vehicle Navigation occurs on this ridge and the two Jack Rabbits scattered at hundred-yard intervals along this ridge. After this we retired to our Campground in Sulphur Canyon and Set up camp. This by 2:00 p.m. Two Raven flew across Sulphur Canyon, high, from the east, and circled, calling, above the upper Sheep Carcass at 2:25 p.m. They soon left westward, more raven circled Carcasses at 2:40 p.m. Two Golden Eagle circled above North Hopper Mountain at 2:45 p.m., one of which was an immature bird. This bird had long patches of white under outer third of wings. See below. These Eagles, after playing on the wind above North Hopper Mt. flown northward after 3:15 p.m. No large birds in sight at 3:00 p.m. Two Golden Eagle and one Raven show up and circle above the carcass of the Sheep at 3:05 p.m., and an adult Condor comes up above ridge due north of our Camp in the Saddle in which a death Big-Cone Spruce tree stands. This Condor could be seen through this saddle but was probably three-quarter-mile from us. After circling for two minutes it moved off eastward, fast, and dipped behind the ridge out of view. At 3:10 p.m. the two Golden Eagles seen at 3:05 had gone. Two other Golden Eagle Cross above us, high, heading Southeast- At 3:25 p.m., was seen circling above the North-headwaters of Sulphur Creek
