of the southern Tehachapi mountains. He will be on this southeast side of these mountains for several more weeks yet, poisoning, and will be on the lookout for Condor there. Dan Garcia said he has seen very few buzzards during this season of poisoning that commenced only about two weeks ago. He also said this season was the first time squirrels have been poisoned on the east slope of the mountains on Tajon Ranch property. The last two weeks have been Dan's first experience with this area, he never having been on this side of the ranch property before. Don Garcia took us around back of the cabin, in which the poison crew and he were staying and showed us a dead dead Turkey Buzzard that he said had flown in and died there yesterday. The dead buzzard appeared to be in juvenile plumage and the head was black and covered with dark down. Mr. Garcia thought it could have died from 1080 poison. The front of this buzzard's body appeared to have been damaged and blood was clotted near the skin surface, but under the skin. We thought more likely it could have been damaged somehow and dial of the results. I am chatting with a Mr. Jack Abercrombie, who cares for cattle of the Newhall Land and Cattle Co., of Newhall, who has a grazing lease on the southeast side of Tajon Ranch. He knows condor having been raised up from childhood in this general area. He has not seen Condor this year with its exception of two Condor. He saw circling above Castaic Lake, near Leder, some two or three outdoor weeks ago. Mr. Abercrombie will be on the lookout for Condor and keep notes on his sightings for us.
