Coyote


Today during an impoundment survey at Back Bay NWR Geralyn Morales and I saw a coyote.  It was just standing in some water at the far edge of H pool.  It didn't move at first, giving us great looks at him.  Then he simply walked off toward the east into the shrub/scrub.  It was the first coyote I've ever seen in the East.  The photo here is not of the individual we saw.  Ours was indeed a very healthy looking individual, with very handsome fur with reddish tinges. He didn't look the least bit scrawny or mangy as so many coyotes look.  He was a handsome brute.
