Coyote and raccoon smile for night camera


There are coyotes in the brushy area behind our house.

Neighbors have talked about missing cats and trapping the animals.

A couple of days ago a coyote was peeking out of the brush line watching our little dog bark at it. Sometimes a coyote wanders into the mowed easement. But that is a rare sight.

Occasionally at night it sounds like there are lots of coyotes out there howling.

There are couple of animal trails through the brush. I set up the camera near a clearing and tossed out some old tortillas as an enticement to stop.

A coyote showed up after nightfall. A couple of raccoons came through later, and raccoons reappeared around 4 a.m.
