Coyote On The Run

Posted by Morris J Chisholm - Photographer (Thunder Bay, Canada) on 17 April 2008 in Animal & Insect.

I was trying to get as close to some deer as I could and was being as quiet as I could when I heard water moving just to the left of me I turned to see this coyote turning and on the run from me. In my minds eye for a split second he looked like the wolf in the movie "300". But as you maybe able to make out he/she looks very disheveled. This is the second time I have seen coyotes close to the old Pool Six area.

What an awesome find Morris! This is definitely not something you see every day - I love the DOF and perspective you've used here - it makes it seem like we're peeking in on his private world.
