Coyote season

 

A year ago, I made a similar posting about seeing coyotes in the valley bottoms primarily in the months of December through April. I was challenged by someone who rightly said that coyotes can be seen throughout the year. True, but I merely noted that this is when I usually see them. Presumably, they are mainly at higher elevations at other times.

A coyote wandered along a lakeside road but just ignored people and traffic — until I began watching it. 

It promptly retreated to the beach. While I continued to watch it, the coyote looked back at me with a look of such distrust and disdain, that I wondered just what I, or my species, might be doing to deserve its contempt.

    Beautiful animals. Plenty around Blewett in Nelson. Someone taught me to use simple kinesiology to muscle test for the presence of a cougar or coyote, before opening the door for my cat to go outside, day or night. Important tips like this increase pet survival when one lives in forest areas especially.

    I saw a coyote in our neighbourhood in town (Castlegar), it probably followed the wild turkeys who were after a neighbours grapes. This was in late summer.
