Coyote’s are always in tune with their surroundings – Especially if the Roadrunner passes by:)! Although I do see coyotes fairly regularly in the wild, this particular one was captive.

I HEAR coyotes often, but never see them in the wild. One was barking as Renata & I hiked back down from a summit sunset, which had Renata very concerned, but, of course it never showed it's face (it was a good distance away and I always make a point of being a bit noisey (talking, clanking my hiking stick, etc) when hiking in the wild to keep animals away.Lovely portrait, love the smooth feel of the fur with the tail wrapped around it's face. Nice job, Jeff! #7935530
