California Condor Eben McMillan 29 February 1964 I saw a Golden Eagle circling east of the road about five miles southwest of Woody. Stopping at the home of Dorothy Albitire that is about two miles west of Woody I found, upon inquiry, that she had lost no lambs this year. She said that it was about one year ago now that something was killing her big lambs. She felt sure it was an Eagle. I was somewhat concerned about this upon hearing of it last year for with Eagles on her list of enemies I was afraid condor might come in to feed on her dead sheep and get shot, by her, for an eagle. I prevailed upon Mrs. Albitire to inform me should any large bird be seen feeding on any dead sheep, or other animal, so that I could go and investigate the Cause of the animals death and try to help her out should we find that her Lambs were being killed by Eagles. This she consented to do and besoured me this morning that she would call me as soon as she found signs of Predation on her sheep. Several Turkey vultures were in the tops of the eucalyptus trees near the Post Office in Woody. Several of these birds were also seen circling a hilltop about one mile west of Woody. Dorothy Albitire said they had been in the Woody area for about a week. Enroute from Woody to Glennville I encountered some snow on the road. At the top of the grade it lay about five inches deep in the road. Arriving in Glennville about 10:15 A.M. I talked with Friedland and Evelyn Farnsworth who own the Shopping Center in Glennville as well as their ranch property about three miles south of the town. Mrs. -
