Ford 3078 Gymnogyps californianus May 6, 1946 Nr. Famoso, Calif. watched it constantly until 10:20. It circled at 300+ altitude, giving an occasional wing dip or half dip. Then it bore NW in a long glide until about over Little Creek 2+ miles E. of Baternville road, than circled - saw a total of 4 condors scattre- ed there at about 10:23. At 10:25 saw another at 200+ altitude, circling, 2+ miles toward Bear Mtn. again. I saw 2 near the power line about 1 mile to W. of me at 10:34 - I watched the higher one, at 1000+ altitude, until 10:52. It circled + wander- ed to W. for about a mile, then N. about 1 mile, then descended to 500+ with several wing dips + passed the vicinity of my "lariat"; then continued off to N. until about 2 miles N. of me (where I lost it). At 11:20, I saw one about 300' over the power line to W. of me & watched it until 11:39. It headed W. about 1 mile to a group of circling turkey vul- tures & circled with them at 100+, then rose as the buzzards rose (12+ turkey vultures), with them, near the bottom of the column of vultures, than near the top as the whirling group flattener- ed at 500', then slme above them to about 1000' altitude. I timed about 5 circles - they were 16-17 seconds each. Condor times one circle to vultures 2 - almost exact ratio. Condor then headed SE in a long glide
