[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Coyotes are common throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico. They have long fur, bushy tails, and erect ears. Despite their sometimes lean appearance, they are very attractive animals.
Wolves hate them and where you find wolves, you usually won't find too many coyotes. The eradication of the wolf throughout most of the U.S. has allowed the coyote population to blossom.
Coyotes weigh 25 to 30 pounds with the males being a bit bigger than the females
Coyotes will eat just about anything they can find or catch. This includes small mammals like mice, rabbits, skunks, and even cats and small dogs. They will also eat grass and berries along with insects.
There are few things as cool as hearing a coyote yipping. It is unmistakable and can be heard for miles. You can hear them all year but supposedly they yip more in the fall. It's kind of a high pitched "yip yip" followed by an eery, high pitched howl.

Hello Lise,
Wonderful image of this relaxed resting Coyote.
Lovely pose and wonderful color tones, catch light in the eys and details in the fur.
Excellent composition and exposure, but would like to have seen a little more brighness at the animal.
Nevertheless a real joy to look at.
Thanks for sharing.
Kindest regards,
Harry

Hi Lise. What a nice shot of the Coyote in the shade of the trees. very good detail and colour in the fur and eyes. a very good compostion and POV. very well done TFS. good notes too
Nick..

Vous devez avoir été certainement dans le sens du vent du coyote. Ils ont le sens très sensible d'odeur et un sixième sens quand il s'agit des humains. ...very peureux. Ceci est comme ferme un coup comme je jamais ai vu et me crois.. j'a vu la façon plus que mon action de coyotes. Parfois dans les certaines saisons je les ai vus tous les jours dans les montagnes et même ici dans une petite ville il y a quelques-uns avec les chiots qui me conduis fou la nuit. Lequel tous moyens ceci est une très bonne photo rare. Travail agréable.

Bob

Re-Salut Lise,

Très belle photo que ce coyote se reposant. L'arrière plan plus clair donne un bel effet sur cette photo.
