Mountain Lion

Every year when guests ask me if we have a mountain lion I tell them 2nd to 3rd week of March and right around Thanksgiving. There are three hawks currently patrolling the canyon. A male and a female sharpshin hawk and the third one I'm not sure of yet but have seen it from a distance. Each morning the ravens have been gathering and heading toward the north side of the property where I see the female the most. Linny and I have seen this befoe where they gather to kill a competitor. I told Teresa the female sharpshin would be dead in a few days. I have seen at least one raven shadowing it everywhere it goes. At the boat ramp I saw a raven sitting on the next branch same tree to the female hawk. Two dayw later I saw six ravens come out of the tamarisk at once. I was confident I was about to find the dead female but when I walked over there it was a dead three point mule deer I have seen many times on the property over the years. The first day I saw it was still complete from the neck up and I didn't see any marks from a mountain lion or tracks. The next two times I visited I did notice that the neck was broken and bent back as I've seen the mountain lion do before.
