Gymnogyps californianus February 15, 1946 Santa Barbara, Calif. Another museum bird was apparently from the Big Sur district; it was stuffed with rope & 5F papers of 1896 date - this bird remounted by Rett. Another was shot in 1926 by an old Mexican (in former note). There are 4 specimens (including the last year's pickup) at the museum. February 16, 1946 Santa Barbara, Calif. Talked with Larry Stevens, egg collector, at Bob's and garage (mechanic store). He said he had heard of no condors in lost few years except the 13 he saw with Rett & de Rocherie Canyon birds. The latter, he said, the old tinier in Rocherie Canyon told him had been there for years, roosted in the head of the canyon, & nested there. I rather think this a roosting overflow from Big Pine Mtn. area. Stevens says Ellen McMillan might know more about condors than Dan but that he was hard to talk to. These men are glad that squirrel poisoning will be cause the eagles & falcons to move out of that country - they would rather have the squirrels & eagles than neither. Stevens thinks there are as many or more of condors now than 20 years ago. He could not recall the name of the old tinier who sold him a condor egg for $25 - but
