Feeling a little down I decided to walk to the post box for some fresh air. To my pleasant surprise, I received a thoughtful package from Spain!
This little gift of kindness lifted my spirits and reminded me of the lovely friendships we have here on Flickr.
I'm a little slow right now but will catch up over time ;D

Aesop's Fable - The Hare With Many Friends
A Hare was very popular with the other animals in the jungle who all claimed to be her friends. One day she heard the hounds approaching her and hoped to escape them by the aid of her Friends. So, she went to the horse, and asked him to carry her away from the hounds on his back. But he declined, stating that he had important work to do for his master. "He felt sure," he said, "that all her other friends would come to her assistance." She then applied to the bull, and hoped that he would repel the hounds with his horns. The bull replied: "I am very sorry, but I have an appointment with a lady; but I feel sure that our friend the goat will do what you want." The goat, however, feared that his back might do her some harm if he took her upon it. The ram, he felt sure, was the proper friend to ask for help. So she went to the ram and told him the case. The ram replied: "Another time, my dear friend. I do not like to interfere on the present occasion, as hounds have been known to eat sheep as well as hares." The Hare then applied, as a last hope, to the calf, who regretted that he was unable to help her, as he did not like to take the responsibility upon himself, as so many older persons than himself had declined the task. By this time the hounds were quite near, and the Hare took to her heels and luckily escaped.
Moral of the story :
He that has many friends, has no friends.
Here I just caught the attention of a coyote peeking across the road to see if it was okay for him to cross.
While we see Coyotes in the Phoenix area with some frequency, I’m always thrilled to see them. Check this guy out. He looks very lean and fit. This is definitely a boy (he’s got daddy parts) but we didn’t see a female with him. Maybe a youngster. This is rather heavily cropped, but still, I always love seeing the coyotes.

I have a six degrees of separation with this portrait. Kehinde Wiley is the artist that painted this portrait which is hanging in the Philbrook Museum of Art in Tulsa. He is known for painting large images using African Americans as subjects and using famous paintings as inspiration. This painting is huge, it is almost ten feet across. Here is a link to the original painting:

Now for the six degrees of separation. I went to school in Hawaii at Punahou as did Barack Obama while I was a student there. He was a couple of years behind me, but I never met him. Mr. Wiley was chosen to be the official portrait painter for Mr. Obama when he was in office. I looked it up online and it is a pretty amazing portrait of the President. If you made it this far, thanks for reading.
This beautiful 'Wiley Coyote' was strolling along with it's partner next to the road I was traveling. I stopped got out of the car along with my two birding buddies. One of the coyotes kept it's distance but this one didn't seem to have a care in the world except for where it's nest meal would be.
We're back in our sunny mild temps here in sunny California...:)...wishing you the same, have a wonderful day and thank you for your visit and comments.

Took this shot (in town) with my 24-240mm fully zoomed. The coyote was over 100 meters out. So this is a heavy crop. Still had enough detail that I wanted to share it. The coyote seems to be healthy and looks to be growing a thick coat in anticipation of winter.
is lurking again, ..... on top of sheds and garage roofs.
This is fine until nearby dogs get a whiff of them and all start barking.
There are a few highlights to see when you're driving north on Hwy. 65 out of Conway. First is the inherent silliness of the name of Pickles Gap (I mean, what is the dill with it?). Then there is the dramatic excitement of the runaway truck ramp. After that, as you begin to approach the Leslie metro area, you can see the iconic red barn at Wileys Cove. The barn is scenically situated along a hillside, with a blanket of trees behind it.
