California Condor Eben McMillan 27 January 1964 Three or four years ago Ben Easley saw 29 Condors in the White Wolf area southeast of Bakersfield. These birds were perched and flying around near the Toyon Ranch Corrals in White Wolf Pass and were feeding on the carcass of a cow that lay in a draw not far from the White Wolf Corrals. Several of these were young birds Mr. Easley said for they lacked the white under the wings. He thought these Condor remained in the White Wolf area for several days. John White, an assistant and field man for Ben Easley said that a week or two before Mr. Easley saw the Condor at White Wolf he had seen 19 Condor when poisoning squirrels below the Jeff Hitchcock Ranch in the Rancheria area at the foot of Battlesnake Grade. This area is at the southwest end of Greenhorn Mountain and on the road from the mouth of Kern River to Greenhorn Mountain. Mrs. White said these Condor were at this locality for several days before they left. When the squirrel poisoning was operation was moved from this locality, to the White Wolf area, a week or ten days later, that was when Easley saw the Condor at White Wolf. John White knows Dr. Lawrence (George) of the Bakersfield Jr. College. He said that Dr. Lawrence wrote his thesis on Condor and thought he would have some good information that we could use. I will look Dr. Lawrence up on some future trip to Bakersfield.
