It's more likely that you saw a vulture. Black Vultures and Turkey Vultures look like smaller versions of the California Condor. Also, although I've heard of free-flying condors roaming to Utah, I have not heard of any Texas sightings. Here's a graphic that shows a comparison of condors, vultures, and eagles.

I believe I saw a California Condor today flying just south of Fort Worth, Texas. Can anyone confirm this.
