Gymnogyps californianus
February 25, 1946 Bakersfield, Calif.
Barley now; oats being unavailable. He had seen
or heard of no condors since my visit of about
2d Feb. 2. He reiterated his belief that condors
feeding around Bakersfield (on E. side) roosted
near Baker Grade near Bena. The Baker
Grade road goes up Walker Creek & one can
travel it to Walker Basin.
February 26, 1946 Los Angeles, Calif.
At Cooper Club meeting in L. A. talked
with *? (well known to Pemberter & Did Peyton)
who said he knew two condors had been
seen in the Santa Monica Mtns. last
fall near the Los Angeles Co. line, & he
thought he knew where they might nest.
He offered to go to the place with me this
spring. Another well known member said
he had taken a trip up the to Little
Deese road this year and had seen
some condors high overhead. A woman
said she had seen one close to the
road near Sulpher Mtn. (mr. Ojai) this
year. Quite a number of the members
remembered me well tho they had not
seen me for nearly 5 years. *Did Peyton
thinks this was Did Ploford (sp.?) from my
description of him.
