1932 - 1933 59 Thompson Canyon, Walker Basin- - Oct. 18, 1933 - a buzzard. As they went away from me I saw, distinctly, white, but whether an wings or tail I couldn't tell. The general color was black. I know they weren't buzzards. So I have figured out since that they must have been condors. Their size was awesome. The locality was good for condors: a high rocky mountain top, over- looking the whole Walker Basin. I went out again this afternoon. I saw a pair of Lewis woodpeckers sitting on top of a bigger pine - a dead dead me. After considerable difficulty, I finally got one. Contrary to many of the small birds, (wrens, titmouses, etc.) the Lewis woodpecker seeks a high perch com- manding a wide field of vision, when locading danger. He watches for it, and never lets it get near. Also this evening I got a 42 inch gopher snake, a large toad, and a hyla. Ray also got a gopher snake. Ray says that he thinks he saw- a flock of black birds today, and he also believes he saw a butther bird. Tomorrow will try to collect some, if they are here.
