He bites,
he’s hungry,
and he’s wild.
Spot probably got kicked out of the coyote pack which sometimes happens.
Loner’s like Spot have a tougher time hunting and surviving.
Don’t try to take his bone, he wouldn’t like that…..
But Spot looks quite healthy and curious!
The loners let humans get closer,
but I keep my distance.
The Red Tailed Hawks came closer too, curious about the brave coyote and the cautious human.
Cheers to you & Hope All is Well from The Holler’s wild ones~

Cute and dangerous, not a good combination for us humans
True….. Also sounds like a description of too many humans!!! Was just over loving the gorgeous photos and subjects of your posts. Wonderful…… ꨄ︎

He’s kinda cute, isn’t he? Still, probably safest not to bother him — he might look like a friendly doggie, but his wild nature reigns supreme.
Hi Debbie! Yes, he’s quite the QT, but he is closely related to his wolfie cousins and is best met with caution and respect. Hope all is well with you ꨄ︎
In the wild they look much better than in people environment. Probably, they have enough food to be strong and healthy.
Agreed. They can look quite stressed and emaciated. The healthiest coyote I ever saw was in Death Valley….. go figure! ꨄ︎
Years ago I took the school children to Wolf Hollow, to see wolves up close and learn about them. They are a family, and one wolf had been kicked out for not doing his job. I can still remember the wolf’s name was TeeBee. Your coyote reminds me of this. I’m guessing their packs are like families, and yours was kicked out, too. Beautiful photos, especially the red hawk.
Oh he looks quite playful. Maybe will finally find a mate but guess as you say a more difficult struggle to survive as a loner.
Oh, yes to keeping your distance!!
He does look quite healthy, and fabulous photos of the Red Tailed Hawks.💕
Thank you Eugi. I am happy you enjoyed the critters! Take good care my friend ꨄ︎
You’re welcome, Cindy. 💕😊
I like your description of the place you live–and now we get to see some pictures of a coyote. Nice! We have coyotes around us as well—but I have never seen one–I’ve just heard their howls. 🙂 God bless you Cindy!!
God Bless & Keep you Katie ꨄ︎
Thank you Cindy!! God bless you too!! 🙂
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Magnificent photos!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
So very kind of you & so appreciated too! ꨄ︎
I liked this very much! We had a ‘spot’ living behind us in an empty lot a few years back. He appeared to be recovering from an injury, he had a limp and was always alone. Eventually he moved on. Lovely photos, thank you for sharing.
I am so happy you enjoyed Spot. I love living with the wild ones. Ususally when they are alone like this something is wrong. Good to hear your Spot recovered. Cheers & thanks for stopping by ꨄ︎
It’s always a gift to hear from you, Cindy, and I appreciate learning more about Spot. Your post brings back memories of coyotes howling on winter nights when I lived in a cabin in the northwoods. I miss those days. 💜🪶
The northwoods sound heavenly. I can well understand why you miss this. I remember the wolves howling me to sleep in The Tetons as a child. It is lovely to hear from you Carol and thank you for your thoughtfulness. I hope all is well with you ꨄ︎
