I've seen my first coyote. It's a youngster, looks barely a year old, and has come around my house and steal the food I put out for my cats twice that I've seen so far.
It's odd that it's taken this long for me to see one. I live WAY back in the boonies, so far I have to shoo the deer out of my driveway when I go to work, and I'm used to seeing a lot of wildlife. Raccoons, possums, deer, rabbits, groundhogs, red foxes, they're thick as fleas around here. We even have a couple of bobcats in the area, and while we don't see them anymore, there were black bears around here when I was a kid.
I'm gonna try to get a decent picture of him. I got one on my cell phone, but it doesn't have enough zoom to really make much out.
Heck, I've been kicking around the idea of buying a cheap digital camera anyway. Now I have a reason.
