This morning I was awakened at 4AM by howling and yipping outside my bedroom window. I live in an area where everyone has at least an acre of land, and we still have skunks and other things running around. The howling and yipping was from a mamma coyote and 3 pups, who had taken a spot just under my window to practice. I peeked through the venetian blind and watched them. Very cute! They must be getting plenty to eat as they are sleek and plump. I think it's nice to have an occasional reminder that we humans do not necessairily rule the world. Long live the coyote!!!
