Coyotes in our backyard

 Yes, this coyote was in our backyard.  Right there.  We were looking out the window at 7:15 am on Saturday and there he was, scouting out rabbits.  He chased it a bit, and I ran upstairs for the camera.  Nicole, Sadie and Xander all got to see him as well.  It was so cool!  We were 20 feet away.  Come to find out, he wasn't alone.  He didn't try very hard to catch the rabbit, but I was happy about that because I would prefer not to see a bunny die.  They are cute.
 Here they both are, running south down the valley.
 I like this one with both of their heads turned. 
 Getting farther away.

  2. That's pretty cool. We hear coyotes outside most night and are pretty sure they live in the park next to us, but we have yet to see one near our apartment.
