Gymnogyps californianus March 23, 1946 Big Sespe Canyon, Cal. On 4th in the St. in Fillmore now & would be glad to talk w/ them some evening. Warden Greenwald lives at Bengalow down & may also have some info... Shelby seems intelligent & young (about 38?). March 25, 1946 Santa Paula Canyon, Cal. Drove from Fillmore to Santa Paula Canyon with Sidney Peyton Jr. Parked about 1 mile below Pine Flat Camp. Hiked to the old condor nest (Herbenin 1939) & descended cliff & entered nest at 12:00. Saw no condors up to then. Day clear & warm; fair east wind blowing. The point at cave entrance & 2 or 3 others 100+ yds. further up the canyon were well whitened - fresh whitemash it appeared. Inside the nest cave I collected about 10 bone fragments, teeth, & shell fragments (clam-like), & about 50 turds from crevices in the rock ceiling (some as collected in 1939). At 12:30 left the cave. The bees were still quite active in the hole in the rocks near cave entrance. But I saw 2 adults about 500 ft. overhead at 12:30. Sidney told me they had soared about for 5+ min-utes to within about 200 ft. of nest cave. I estimated that no chick had been raised in that cave since 1939. Saw no evidence of collectors having visited the site. Saw 2 old raven nests
