Pr of coyotes 1/2 mile away. I watched one of them clean out their den hole. Then they moved on.

Can't edit... so here goes. I'm a believer coyotes don't scatter/disperse their yearlings or clean out their old den site. Unless the female is in heat or is already bred.
Great pics. How in the world did you hold a 60 power zoom steady enough to get such clear pics? Tripod?
I rested the camera on the window edge. I took a lot of pics on auto focus. The ones that turned out decent. I sharpened them up a bit on photobucket.
Great pictures, Snafu. I can see why you "Likey" that camera/lens. There are a few whelping dens in my country where I have seen that behavior out of a mating pair.
Obviously the coyote isn't completely figure out Al. They are an interesting critter for sure.
Cool pics, and good info!
Wow - a half mile away. Very nice shots.
Good catch snafu. What I don't understand is all that white stuff :wo:
The corner post, where the two fence lines meet. Is the 1/2 mile marker.
If I recall the top pic is 60x optical. Bottom pic is 60x optical + 60 digital for 120x
