@cityofescondido had the biggest FAIL tonight at their Open House run by 💰outsider investors and $$$$ public affairs consultants. Hundreds of concerned citizens got the first 👀 at something that’s been in the works for 3 years without the public’s knowledge. #NoTransparency

Un reciente avistamiento de un puma en Escondido nos recuerda que la vida silvestre sigue siendo parte de nuestra comunidad.
Protejamos los espacios abiertos. Respetemos la vida silvestre. Preservemos el carácter rural.

A recent mountain lion sighting in Escondido reminds us that wildlife is still part of our community.

Preserve the character of our rural neighborhoods and demand balanced land use planning for new developments that respects biodiversity.

It’s always a treat to see the Hooded Orioles fly back to rural #Escondido in March to breed! They’ll head back to Mexico in September! 🐤Be careful when trimming palm trees and keep an eye out for their pouch-shaped hanging basket nest suspended from the underside of palm fronds

Last week, an alert and caring resident called to report a bucket containing six puppies left on the side of the road near Old Highway 395 and S/R 76.

The caller stayed with the puppies to keep them safe until deputies arrived. The puppies were then transported to the Fallbrook Substation and transferred to the Department of Animal Services, where they will be well cared for.

This is another reminder that no two calls are ever the same, and that looking out for one another, especially the most vulnerable, can make a difference.

A huge thank you to the citizen who made the call and stayed with the puppies. They were left on a very busy roadway, and the situation could have been extremely dangerous. Your quick action helped save six little lives.

@sdlafco Congratulations on championing stellar public service 👏🏽

Time to stand together, #Escondido. Our rural neighborhoods are under threat from reckless planning. ALDEA investors are using annexation tactics to increase zoning 12×. This is not smart growth. Join us and demand better from our leadership.

It’s #coyote mating season 🐾

Mating season typically runs January–February, when increased sightings often fuel online misinformation.

Understanding true coyote behavior helps prevent conflict. Counter fear-based narratives by sharing facts and #coexistence tips.
