Ashby 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2008 We were driving off base today when we saw this little coyote right on the side of the road. I of course ripped the car to the side and got my camera out. I spent about 15 or so minutes with this guy taking pictures, blocking the road when he decided to cross twice. Mom coyote was over in the trees laying low, but making sure I wasn't hurting her baby. I kept my eye on her, or in her direction the whole time to make sure she didn't charge me. Finally the pup decided it was time to cross the road again, and back to mom. So I stood in the middle of the road again while he made his way across and back to mom. He was just to pretty to pass up. Ashby Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ashby 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2008 Thanks guys! I do love watching these guys. If you ever get to watch the pack on a hunt, boy that is a treat. Now I just need to catch it on the camera. As for the light Andrew, it was perfect yesterday. Not a lot of smoke around as you can see from the photos. All of the Coyotes on base and around the area look pretty scruffy, makes you want to take a brush to all of them. They are really cool animals especially at night when all of them are talking back and forth. We have about 100 or so her on base, just unreal.

flyrod98 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2008 All are nice shots, but #3 really grabs me. I like the side light on the face and yet there is still a lot of detail in the shadows along the body. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
