California Condor Ellen McMillan 2 Sept, 1964 Mrs. Furnsworth came at 8:00 A.M. and took us south of Rock Coral Camp and on top of Bear Trapridge where she had seen 9 Condor feeding on the carcass of a stillborn Calf that lay in the pines on this ridge this day ago, or so. This Calf Carcass appeared as a typical leanings. It had been completely skinned even to the ears and legs down poor the muscles, all bones were held intact by the muscles and except for a broken 1/4th or two the spinal Column was in perfect shape except for its lack of meat. It had been completely cleaned. Mrs. Furnsworth said she figured her Cows were about 1/3 Calved out. She has not been having unusual trouble with the Cows in Calving even though deer in the area are being very poor. She had lost two Bulls within the last three week, one of which lay 1/4 mile north of her farm and was now furnishing food for the Condor & Buzzards. Returning to our Camp at 9:30 A.M. we saw that the Condor was still perched in the dead pine. This bird was still preening itself and the Carcassible trite prose was still visible. The morning was still cold and when not preening the bird would pull the black stuff of its neck up over its head where only that Part of the head from the ears forward could be seen, Except for this portion of the head all looked Black.
