Naturalists have determined that the California condor exceeds In nlste its cousin, the condor of the Andes of South America, and U larger than the giant or wandering albatross: wblch travels the ocean lanes of tlie Pacific, south of the equator. The extreme wing expanse of tlie California condor is close to twelve feet. Through care ful measurements, the naturalist learned that tho 'ondor of the aouth ern countries Is smaller In all respects. One of these largest birds that fly Is on exhibition In the Natural His tory museum at San Diego, Oil. Be side tie condor, the turkey buzzard, a smaller relative, appears to be a dwarf. Bntli birds are carrion enters, a fact which has contributed substan tially, to the near extinction of the condor. NuluralNts of earlier years record that tin condor was once fairly common In California.
