California Condor Eban McMillan 25 June 1964 growth of the shubbery along the west scarp of the little sespe Complex creates a situation that enables these Cattle to move among this shrubbery freely to browse. The result of this open browse type shows well in the good condition of the Cattle that came to drink at Cow Springs, even though most herbaceous plants have long past been grazed away by these cattle. Good Numbers of Deer that frequent this same area, also appear in very good condition. We arrived back at Camp by 2:45 p.m. having seen no large bird of prey during the day, excepting the two Condor. At 3:30 p.m. a very black Red-tailed hawk with very light spots at outer quarter of its wings sailed high over Cow Springs to join another adult Red-tailed Hawk that circled above Buckshot Cabin. At 4:45 p.m. We hiked the Cow Springs--Sespe River trail towards the Sespe river. This trail shows a history of long usage, probably even in pre-Spanish times as in places this trail shows much wear and on one hillside, ditches angleing down from the ridge top show where many past trails have been abandoned due to erosion making them unusable, thus the changing from one trail to another. Some of these trails are now more than three feet deep. We Continued on to a point from which we could look down on the nearly right-angle turn that the Sespe river makes as it turns west after coming up from Fillmore northward. This angle turn is about ten miles above the mouth of the river gorge near Fillmore.
