Gymnogyps californianus May 3, 1946 Nr. Famoso, Calif. mistakable (I saw the pictures). Maximum number of condors in photos was 2 or 3. Joe said that buzz- ards & condors eat the membrane but not the digestive tract of the poisoned squirrels; he believes they would be poisoned only if they ate this. Coyotes & bob cats are killed easily by secondary poisoning, Joe said, but apparently not birds. The buzzards give way to the condors & stand around in a circle while condors are feeding, Joe said. Occasionally a condor snaps at a buzzard with bill. Condors can be approached quite close in a car - to within about 40' at times, says Joe. Sometimes they will fly a short ways carrying the squirrel in their bill rather than relinquish it, said Joe - buzzards do this too. The buzzards often stand around & turn their backs with wings out but Joe has not seen condors do this. The "triangle" form- ed by the Bakersfield-Porterville, McFarland-Woody, & Famoso Woody highways has been the most frequented condor area, below says Joe. Once, Joe says, he flushed a condor & a golden eagle from a carcass at Poso Flat. Once, with Everett Horn, he saw condors feeding on a calf on Tojai Ranch before squirrel poisoning season. He said he had seen condors feed on sheep & cattle but mostly on squirrels - he thinks they especially like them. The condors follow 1 or 2 days
