My father-in-law spotted a mountain lion at Reino & Play Del Rey near the north end of Lake Chesbro on both Mon July 7 and Tue July 8 between 6:30-7:00am.  The lion is approximately four feet long nose to tail.  He appears to be a juvenile.  

My father-in-law spotted the lion from our back porch which backs up to Reino.  He and the cat had eye contact as the cat slowly made his way down the hill behind our house.  He appeared to be foraging for food as he was pawing at and looking around on the ground.  It took him about 20 minutes to walk down a reasonably short hill.  As the cat jumped from the hill onto Reino street above our deck, my father-in-law slowly walked sideways toward our back door and went inside.  The cat continued down Reino toward Camino Del Lago into our neighborhood.

On Tuesday morning at the same time, my father-in-law took three pictures of (assumingly) the same cat walking the same path as Monday morning.  Security was notified on both occasions and digital photos were emailed for them to be forwarded to the biologist at the Dept of Fish & Game.

Everyone please be careful!
