Gymnogyps californianus Porterville, Calif. August 19, 1950. Visited Raewell Welch, game warden at Porterville and asked him about the supposed condor nest on Tule Indian Reservation. Welch had no recent news about it and rather doubted that it was really a nest. I went to Tule Indian Reservation and drove up the road about 20 miles beyond headquarters to a logging camp at Redwood Canal at the head of Redwood Creek. The upper part of this road was built last spring by a logging company. I found Leo Claude Rauch, Jr., son of the owner of the Rauch had climbed a pine tree "about 30 feet" from the nest and looked in. He was sure he had seen a fuzzy gray bird there. Rauch also said that in June he had seen 5 condors at once in the Redwood Creek area. He showed me the tree with nest. It was a Sequoia about 12' d.b.h. and 170+ feet tall, living, with green foliage. About 80 feet up tree on S.E. side was a hole about 4" in height (Rauch thought perhaps 6 ft.). A large branch had apparently broken off and fire had burnt out a hole at the base of branch. I saw a young condor in the hole while standing on the road. Its head was grayish flesh-color indicating an age of about 18 weeks. Breast was dark gray fluffy down. Tree was on N.W. side 100 feet from the logging road; its base about 20' above level of road. Tree on moderately steep slope (N.W. slope). At base of tree were a few condor feathers. The ground was much beaten by caterpillar tracks and trees within 50 feet had been felled. The men said that blasting had been done on the road near the tree. The disturbance must have been considerable. Rauch had not seen more than
