10.12.16 Coyote calls



Our Coyote population has been undergoing big changes, with mild Springs that usually limit the number of surviving pups, and human crowding , crowding them out of their traditional territories. Too many mouths to feed, not enough land. 
Tonight I walked the dog out back at dusk, and there halfway down the field was a yearling Coyote, standing, watching. 
Every night they come around, near our compost, near the chicken coop down the street that no longer holds chickens, sussing out survival related possible food sources. 
Big changes in behaviors, as they feel the need nightly to call and growl and howl , protecting their own survival.
