Happy Harvest Festival Day!

Hope to see you at Fort Ross for our first festival in 2 yrs! Should be a perfect fall day at the park - sunny and 70 degrees. 🌞 Can’t get better than that!

The Behren's silverspot butterfly, found in CA's Mendocino & Sonoma counties, is listed as endangered due to low population numbers & limited habitat. Good news is that we're partnering with many to boost their numbers through captive propagation... #thread

Happy World Sea Lion Day! At Fort Ross we celebrate our beautiful sea Lion friends every month by surveying the year round populations of both California and Steller sea lions that haul out just off our coast.

Farallones Field Notes: Harbor seals come ashore to rest, warm up, & from March-June, females give birth & nurse their young. See a seal pup on the beach? Mom could be feeding nearby. Love seals from afar (300 ft.) & keep pets on-leash.

When observing wildlife on the water, be sure to stay at least 5 kayak lengths away from animals. Don't touch, feed or surround wildlife. To report injured or endangered wildlife, visit https://t.co/p5uc3y6nTu.

Do you think you will be the only kayaker to approach her today? Think again. And again. And again. And again.

Otter species around the world are threatened by urban encroachment. It is up to us to be aware and caring enough to respect their spatial needs. #WorldOtterDay

Happy World Bee Day!
Here at Fort Ross, Honey bees find the coast climate too cool, but bumble bees, Bombus voznesenskii, thrive! They were named for Russian scientist I. Voznesenskii who visited Fort Ross in the 1800s.
