California Condor Eben McMillan 25 June 1964 Now puts the flight of Condor, that come out of the Santa Paula Canyon and Bear Heaven areas, directly over hunting camps of hunters that have already proven beyond any doubt that they will shoot at any large bird that comes within their range of fire. We returned to camp at sunset and dined as the last sunlight tipped the high ridges. The Poor-will called close to camp again just before darkness fell. Airplanes shuttled back and forth on the S.F.-L.A. run over our camp. It was warm again tonight. Mosquitoes were at work.
