If I still lived in Oakland I would definitely be involved with this.

The sounds would have unnerved me… though they might have been begging young raccoons that were not in trouble… But then again…

Last night my dog’s barking woke me to noise in the woodsy patch behind our house There was an “animal in distress” sound. A terrible, soft, pathetic whimpering. It went on for 20 min. I guessed it might be the prey of an owl. But wouldn’t an owl kill immediately? I also heard branches and leaves being disturbed about every 3-5 min. , at first low to the ground then, up higher in the trees and that sound was traveling , moving through the woods. My dog (on leash) and I explored this morning where we could because there is a sheer drop off in that part of the woods, but no clues to be seen. Any wisdom on this?
