we have coyotes, lots of them.
i'm in colorado and it's a veritable nature reserve.
on any given day we see eagle, hawk, fox, coyote, geese, etc.

i have never seen the coyotes with my own eyes, but hear them cry at night. lately they've been coming closer to the properties and coming out during the day. have to admit they scare me a bit.

we have a family of hawk in our back yard trees. beautiful to watch every day.
