Lots of human activity on the bridge tonight, three news cameras and many on-lookers. A savvy KGO reporter spotted councilman Mensini on his way to dinner and asked questions about the dam. He repeated that the city had no choice, trees were obstructing the flow, and mentioned relocation to the indian reservation. This despite reports earlier today that this was entirely natural. The reporter was a little shocked that he would mention this on camera and said as much. This reporter earned praise from us and a beaver docent button, which seemed to please her! Interestingly the councilman’s preteen daughter reported wanting to keep the beavers but Mensini was less positive.
Beaver activity was more discrete but still seen, at least two checking out the dam, no sign of imminent departure. I’ll go down in the morning to see what transpires.
