This was a few weeks ago. Caught this guy coming out into the open looking for food. Not sure if you can see because of the reflection on the water but he is staring directly at a family of ducks that were swimming nearby.
I hear the coyotes all the time howling, but this was the first time I was able to actually see one, and I think it resulted in a pretty good picture!
Its thinking if duck nuggets are worth getting wet for
Tangent:
Red foxes often have melanism, and apparently are interbreeding with coyotes.
With the melanism becoming introduced into the offspring, then breeding back in with coyotes.
And those black coyotes expanding into new habitats and picking up new habits as a result.
It's pretty cool
You are so lucky to have that in your backyard. Even with the mosquitos.

There is an ominous undertone from the reflection of the coyote being right underneath the duckling. Very beautiful photo, thanks for sharing!
That's real cool
