Gymnogyps californianus April 15, 1946 San Diego, Calif. investigation of the San Pedro Martir some years ago and came to the conclusion that only 1 or 2 condors were present at best though formerly many. Scott came to this region in 1884 when 4 years old so is well qualified to judge the changes that have occurred in vegetation & wildlife. He has collection of Indian relics also testifies as to the many hours he has spent afield in San Diego County. Scott was of course very friendly to me & is extremely deeply interested in conversation of all kinds. Ed Harrison told me that he had taken about 20 trips to Cuyama Valley with Pemberton in trying to get condor feeding photos. On one occa [illegible] in they picked up jackrabbits alongside the road & piled them about the carcass - this was the day when the condors "took the sheep". The birds also ate the jack rabbits with con siderable relish. At Encinitas I viewed some of Harrison's condor movies. Of especial interest was a fine photo of a soaking wet condor walking from the pool stop Big Cave & shaking up its wings. There were some shots of perching on Whitewash Ridge too. One sequence showed an adult perched atop a Ps. near #2 nest with 3 turkey vultures
