Coyote!

Good morning, blog readers.

This is an announcement. There was a coyote out by the coop this morning. If it hadn't been staring at my chickens, I would have said that they were majestic. They were an awesome coyote, with a full winter coat and a well fed look. 

Casper (see image below) was let out to the balcony. His barking immediately frightened the coyote, which ran off into the woods.

Casper the dog.

The girls were shocked by the incident, and still were when I went to check for paw prints.

. . .

The coyote was first sneaking around under a tree,

but then decided on coming out into the light of day. 
As evidenced by these supposed tracks. 
Of course, the girls were completely oblivious to it all, even when the coyote was in the open, until the coyote started running. Then they started doing a warning call like there would be no tomorrow, which there wouldn't have been (for the girls, anyhow) if we hadn't noticed.


But today's a beautiful day.
