Gymnogyps californianus July 19, 1946 Nr. Fountain Springs, Calif. clerce of corder presence. I incidentally found 3 squirrels dead outside of holes - 2 were untouched but fell apart easily so quite ripe; 1 was 1/3 eaten; stomach was opened but its contents untouched. At 2 p.m. I was atop a boulder about 2 1/2 miles E. of Fountain Springs. From there at 2:58 I saw 5 corders apparently about 1/2 mile W. of S. end of Credow Mtn. They circled above canyon, working eastward over the mountain top; I followed 1-3 about 2 miles further E. One went out of sight into Deer Creek drainage (3:14) and I followed another, rising & working E., until 3:20. Fair W. wind continued. At 3:37 I saw about 35 turkey vultures in a bunch over S. end of Credow Mtn. I kept up a constant search but saw no more corders there by 4 p.m. Drave then toward Calif. Hot Springs taking the old road on N. side of King Range Pk.. Got a good view of the big conifers around head of Gordon Creek, the suspected roosting area, but saw no corders by 5:30. Met an old timer who lived on this road. He said he had seen a corder after a rabbit on the Deer Creek road several years ago (very doubtful!). July 15, 1946 Nr. Gordon Creek, Calif. At 6 a.m. I was on the road opposite the head of Gordon Creek. At 7 a.m. started watching ridge between Gilbert Pk. & Hatchett Pk. Day clear & warm, light W. breeze by
