Members should be careful not to leave food on boats and create enticing environments for local wild life. As seen below, doing so can attract some interesting characters. On May 9th, two of our staff members, Virginia Mattingly and Everett Coverdell responded to a call about a raccoon in a boat. When they arrived at the location, they found not 1, but 5 baby raccoons. Virginia later returned to the sight in the evening, and left the babies in the area where they were found. She monitored them from her car until around 10:30 p.m. when the mother raccoon returned and reclaimed her young.
ABOVE: Please click on the album cover(top for first half of recording/bottom for second half) to hear a recording found by, and provided by ALA member Travis Winsor. He states: "The recording I found was an old 33 1/3 vinyl record. The cover art (seen above) indicates the recording was made by the Boise Cascade Properties Sales Corporation. It is narrated by Tom Harmon and his wife Elyse who take you on an 'armchair exploration of Lake Arrowhead.' It is a sales pitch for people to purchase property in the area. The year is unknown." Please enjoy! It is quite a treat. | ||||
