Birds aren’t realMass bird death in Mexico.
Did you take that? If so, hell of a shot. We have coyotes here, supposedly a lot of them. I've only seen them twice in the daytime and both times way out of camera range.
^ That's a Downy Woodpecker in case you were wondering.
Is that San Joaquin Wildlife Sanctuary? Look at mama's teets. Great shot!
Thanks! They are sneaky. Coyote population increases are proportional to human population due to food supply (cats and pets) plus their skill at avoiding humans. Indians call them "God's dog" due to their craftiness.Did you take that? If so, hell of a shot. We have coyotes here, supposedly a lot of them.

Yes - SJWS. There's a lot of foot traffic there but if you're very quiet and very patient you will eventually see Bobcats. This day there was a duck with ducklings and coyote mom with pups. Ducks paid the tax!Is that San Joaquin Wildlife Sanctuary? Look at mama's teets. Great shot!

Thank you for the correction.wrong
'Rodents make up the bulk of the coyote diet in both urban areas and rural areas. Although it has yet to be adequately measured in urban systems, experiments in rural areas have shown that the removal of coyotes results in a dramatic increase in rodent abundance and a decrease in rodent diversity (this means that only a few species increase and exclude other rodent species). Rodent increases have been observed in certain urban areas, such as golf courses, following coyote removal programs. There is also the possibility that coyotes help to control woodchucks. Many areas, including cemeteries and golf courses, have reported declines in woodchuck abundance once coyotes appeared.
