A very fun encounter with this guy and his mate this past weekend. I had spotted a bunch of wild turkeys and was trying to find a place to park to take pictures when suddenly the turkeys took off. Then, I see why. The pair of coyotes had snuck up on them and pounced.
Their hunt wasn’t successful although one did knock a bunch of feathers off of one bird. The pair then split and sought out other targets and I in turn gave pursuit. I thought I had lost them when the male appeared and crossed the path right in front of me.
