Week #1 - Early Morning Coyote
by Laura Milholland

Las Gallinas ponds, San Rafael, CA

He was wary of a nearby dog, but also keeping an eye on me.
There was no doubt he could hear the "click" of my camera. :)

Very nice, Laura! I love coyotes. We occasionally see them in the city.

I am extremely impressed, Laura. That shot came out great!

Amazing! I've only seen one coyote down here in FL and wasn't able to get a shot of it. You did a great job with this. I love the sun on his (her?) coat and the way he is looking at you.

Awesome shot, Laura! Lucky you to see one out in the open like that. They are elusive in my area. Sharon

Great catch! Hard to photograph because they are so shy but this one actually looked at you.

Better there than in my backyard like the last Coyote I photographed!!!
Nice morning light. As for his expression, coyotes always seem to have that wary look; no matter what is going on around them. Lucky you had the 300mm lens attached to your camera. Did you shoot this on your tripod?

Actually that is a pretty darn good shot for the coyote whizzing by!
