I don't think they found him, but it wasn't for lack of trying. They hunted for at least a half hour. The pictures came from my Bushnell Trophy Cam. I edited them into a short movie. This is my first attempt at using Picasa to make a movie. I don't think Sundance will be calling, but have a look if you have a few minutes.

Coyotes on the Hunt
The other night two coyotes visited the back yard. Off and on during night the resident bunny had been playing and drinking from the water feature. About 15 minutes after his last visit, the coyotes showed up.

Coyote on the Cam
It finally happened! I "captured" a picture of a coyote visiting our water feature on the new Trophy Cam that I set up.
The coyote only stayed a few seconds. He enters the picture on the right side and exits from the top left. Here are the 6 pix:
I hope these are only the first of a lot of pictures of our backyard wildlife.

Backyard Trophy Cam
For a long time I've wanted to set up a camera to record the wildlife that comes to our water feature. During the day we see rabbits and quail almost every day. Occasionally we see coyotes, road runners, and Harris Hawks. Last week we saw a different bird of prey, which I think was a Cooper's Hawk. I wish I had a photo to study or show to someone who would know more.
So I was excited when Kent surprised me with an early Christmas present a few days ago--a Trophy Cam. I've had a great time working with getting it set up and experimenting with the settings. Here are some of the photos:
The rabbit on the left is the first one we "captured".
I changed the location slightly here:
So far I've only captured rabbits and quail. But I'm sure that one night I'll catch the coyotes dancing in the moonlight.
