A New Predator in Town

Came home from banding to scan the lakes to make sure the Redhead was still around. It was. Went over to the cemetery to check on the Bald Eagles and met up with Paul Hueber who asked if I had ever seen a Coyote there before. He was sure he just saw one, though he never saw one before. I mentioned that foxes had been there before and went for a look.

As I made my way around the back of the cemetery I saw something move in front of me. Yep. A Coyote.

Coyote

A first for me this close to the house. Bet the foxes would not be around anymore. Or outdoor cats.

The canine was very wary of the van and always stayed about the same distance away no matter how hard I tired to get closer.

Interesting...
