2511_1783 Coyote
Coyote is looking awfully noble in this early morning shot from the rolling red Toyota blind. It was on my left, slightly elevated as the grass-and-sagebrush flats begin to rise up toward rolling hills; to my right the ground dropped away to the Frenchman River. I saw a lot of coyotes along this stretch in October and November, or more correctly, the same two or three coyotes many, many times.
I don't know where they are now that winter has arrived - probably spending a lot of time in their cozy dens. There are still critters out, but without doubt we are entering the winter lull when sightings become less frequent. I have a lot of indoor projects to work on. And my house admittedly is cozy. I'm already getting extra sleep. So maybe I'm not that different from some wild critter...
