Title: Coyote Beautiful
Post by: Ann Brokelman on January 02, 2010, 09:16:03 AM

Went for a drive east towards Whitby and in the fields was this beautiful male coyote.  He was hunting constantly.  Took photos from the car for a few minutes then left him to his hunting.

Great pics Ann.  The one where he is staring at you is really good.  Nice and sharp and i love the snow as well.  I saw one a week back at Westney and 7 he was hunting as well.  I didn't have my camera in highspeed mode and was quickly taking shots and wouldn't he jump like three feet in the air to pounce on a rodent and my camera pauses to save the previous shots.  I could have cried as i missed the money shot.

I know what you mean Skyviewer.  This male was jumping constantly at voles or mice.  I wish I had a tripod so the shots would be sharper but it was really just nice to see him.  He looks very healthy and a good coat on him.
