Oops, my bad, the last Condor was in Drain in March of 1904, seen by George
Peck who had also seen two birds there in July 1903.

If you happened to see the last Condor in Oregon in Drain in July 1903, you
can count them. Otherwise they are not countable. The ones released in
California and Utah are still not countable despite having been first
released over a decade ago. The general ABA rule is that a population has
to be self-sustaining and increasing in order for an introduced species to
be countable. At this point they are not self-sustaining, let alone
increasing. It will be decades before they would be countable here again.

How long until CA Condors will be countable in Oregon or are they now ?
