The Trickster


The remnants of Hurricane Dolly have prevented Research Associate Becca and me from venturing out onto the trail today; it's been raining all morning. Weatherpersons have predicted as much as 3" for today and tomorrow. Fortunately, we are able to post these photographs of two visitors to the grounds at COC from early evening yesterday. Two young female coyotes traveling together made a pit stop at the watering hole, drinking and then taking several leaks near the water bowl. Here they are.
I quickly ran for my camera, slapped the telephoto lens on, and took a few passable shots through the vegetation. Even though I was taking photos through a window, one of the pair was leery.
The second moved in for a quaff.
They took turns drinking.
Check out the tongue!
