Coyotes!

I happened to look out the window this morning, and saw something running across the neighbour's field. I grabbed the binoculars just as it stopped on a small hillock north of our property line, and saw it was a coyote. David saw a second one that ran and caught up with the first one. They stood there for a couple of minutes, surveying the field, before moving off into the woods. It was unbelievable! Last spring David woke to the sounds of coyotes and pups yipping, so we're hoping that their den is in the nearby woods. We'll keep our eyes and ears open in case we see or hear them!

Unfortunately, there are no pictures since my little point&shoot wouldn't zoom in close enough, and my older SLR has no film or batteries. That will be soon remedied.
