Coyote, downsview

Hey!

Tuesday morning as I was observing the fields adjacent the runways I spotted a Kestrel Hovering(not unusual) which quickly disappeared upon the arrival of a Northern Harrier coursing no more than 2 feet above the field.

A minute or so later a lone Coyote moved thru the area that the Harrier had just flown over. It disappeared over a small berm as headed out towards the airfield
(Inside the perimeter fence) at Downsview.

P.s. many sighting of Fox and ground hogs here, Coyote's rarely seen at 9:30 am

Where exactly is Downsview? When I was very young, we lived in in Downsview (Rosseau Road) but I have no idea where that is...and ummm...what's a berm?

I've read that there is deer there. Any truth to that?
