Lots of Sightings!!

Well our girl was seen all over her familiar stomping grounds today. At 7:45 this morning she was running up Reno and took a left on Albermarle and into some backyards there. From there she headed over to the alleys between Harrison and Garrison and 44th and 45th where there's apparently some good garbage. From there she headed out towards River and then into the Alley that runs behind Fessenden between River and 44th.

Then finally she made it over to her favorite hangout on Murray where she was almost caught. Hopefully we're getting closer!

She's on her loop again...

Sighting this afternoon at around 5 pm 3/29 in a wooded area behind 400 Thornapple St. We're hoping this is just a stop on the same loop she made last week (see the tracking map) and before long she'll be back in the Rodman's area where our feeding stations and traps are!

UPDATE: The same folks who saw her at 5 PM just saw her at 7PM around the corner at 7106 Meadow Lane. Fingers crossed but it seems to be consistent with her loop. Hopefully she's on her way back down...

UPDATE: Another sighting at 10 PM on the alley that runs parallel to River approaching Brandywine. She came out of the alley and made a left turn on Brandywine towards 42nd, turned left up 42nd and then disappeared in the alley on the right before Chesapeake.

Holding off on additional flyering

Since Tasha seems to have found a little are where she's comfortable, we don't need to continue flyering. Instead, we'll monitor our feeding stations, and otherwise stay out of the area and avoid scaring her off.

Our traps out--we just need Tasha to get curious enough to enter one!

We've seen her with our own eyes!!

This afternoon Tasha slept comfortably in a bed she made of leaves in the back yard on Murray where she's been many times. She slept there most of the day and then when she left we set up a trap and a feeding station. Let's keep our fingers crossed!!

SIGHTINGS: 03/28/09, AM

Tasha has been hanging out today at her spot on Murray--and that's fine with us! We want her to get chill and relaxed in one spot, so that we can eventually trap her there.

SIGHTINGS: 03/27/09, Fessenden area, Sunday outreach

Tasha was seen twice today at Fessenden and 43rd, in the AM and again at around 11:00 pm. She was also seen at Keokuk St and Montgomery (by River Road and Western Avenue). Other folks saw Tasha on Fessenden and 43rd around 6:45 am 9:45 pm, so Tasha seems pretty relaxed there. She was also back on Murray in the morning. We're so glad to have her back in an area where we've seen her before.

We really hope we're able to trap her soon, so we can bring her back to safety and start to take down the flyers!

Sunday

We still need help to spread the word--join us on Sunday for our outreach campaign. We'll be meeting at 11:00 at the Bethesda Public Pool: 6300 Little Falls Pkwy & Hillandale Road, Bethesda, MD. Hope to see you then!

Another Sighting! 3/27/2009 7:45 AM on Murray St.

This is a spot where she's been before and we actually had a trap set up, but we kept catching raccoons so we had to remove it. She's back in familiar territory and within a short trot of multiple feeding stations and hopefully traps. So hopefully we are getting closer to catching her!

Folks are out flyering today and another group will be out Sunday morning. We also need help getting flyers to area businesses, churches, schools, and metro riders! If you can help with flyering or anything else please let us know!
