Observation Date / Time
Yulupa and Sonoma Creeks nearby. Sonoma Creek still has water, but Yulupa is dry, except perhaps for pockets of water. Originally, my friend reported this to me on Monday, 10/26/15 at 08:45 hours. She also gave me an updated report on Tuesday, 10/27/15 at 09:15 hours and said it has gotten moved slightly on to the road from scavengers probably. Wednesday, 10/28/15 at 18:30 hours, I drove by to see it's conditions and took the posted photos. There was a Turkey Vulture eating the doe and it flew up when I came nearby. This road is often used as a back up of Hwy 12 to get to and from Santa Rosa as well as Rohnert Park, Cotati and Petaluma.
