Gymnogyps californicus May 29, 1946 Nr. Mt. Poso, Cal'f. descent behind a hill & at 1:45 a second in the same locality as before (not especially as if to land). 1:55, I saw 2 soaring at about 200' alt- itute over same area. I walked about 1/4 mile E. of road to a knoll. I saw from there at 2:10 4 con- dors circling over the rolling hills 3/4 ± mile E. of me.

Mt. Feltor was directly beyond the bald hill, & Breckenridge mtn. conspicuous to the SE. About 25 burros grazed near me. By 2:25 I saw neither condors nor turkey vultures in air so walked toward the bald hill. At 2:29 I saw 1, & about 2:32, 3 condors over the bald hill - a fourth rose from 3/8 ± mile S. of them & all circled at about 300' altitude. At 3:35, a lone vulture with them. 3:36, 3 circled, one about 1/2 mile N. of the 2. The southern two glided southward & I saw 2 others about 1/4 mile ahead of them also heading S. at about 300' altitude (2:40). I walked to the top of the bald knoll but saw no condors or vul-
