Beautiful pics :yoyo:
He's clearly got other things on his mind, but their fun to watch.
Excellent!!! :yoyo:
WAY COOL........... :yoyo:
That's pretty neat.
Hey nasty,
Those are some great photos. How far away from him were you? What power telephoto?
Jim
Cool story & pix Nasty!!!! :biggrin:
What time of day was this? :shrug:
Id say 70 yards and it was 2:30 in the afternoon....theres a couple of packs in the area ive heard and had howling before.......im going out this weekend and try to catch that one with a saltwater rod, some hotdogs and a circle hook...i wanna wrestle him down then sneak n at night and leave him in the cab of my brothers pickup..... :roflmao:...seriously, if he keeps hangin out like that hes guna have a short sweet life span :wink:
How can you take pics of a live coyote and not have the shakes so the pic isn't blurry? :madd: I must have bigger adrenaline reserves. :innocentwhistle: :biggrin: Very nice pics. :yoyo:
IM STONE COLD AND THATS THE BOTTOM LINE :eyebrow:.......but seriously....I am a hard core fly fisher and I think the intense concentration I have learned from doing that has helped my hunting alot over the years by honing my ability to pinpoint focus on the moment of truth....its after the shot when I usually get wound up... :yoyo:
So that's what a coyote looks like. I was beginning to think I forgot. Nice pics.
