Coyote at Antelope Island

mstrozewski

I went to Antelope Island earlier this evening, hoping to see some form of wildlife. As I drove along Ranch Road looking for Porcupine I stopped at a tree, surveying the surrounding areas and saw the coyote rustling around looking for food. Here's some of what I was able to get before it got tired of being bothered

(at one time there was myself and 3 other vehicles; but the vehicle in front of me was slapping their vehicle and calling it a "dog" - "look over here" "look up" and some other choice words) (At least I had the best view :ivar )

I rarely get to view a coyote so close to the road, so I consider myself lucky and the fact that it didn't mind my car. I used a Canon 7D and Tamron 200-500mm Lens with a Bean Bag over the window for stabilization.

Anyway, It was always interesting watching coyotes and their behavior. Let me know what you think!

Excellent set of images

I like #1, for the great focus on the eyes, and #5, and #6 best, and good for you for capturing a Coyote. We have them, but I have only glimpsed one briefly years ago. Best, Pam

I like the secomd and third ones best. Third might be even better with a tighter crop to get rid of extra space at top of frame and to move coyotes' head from middle of the frame.
