Rambling through Nevada, one morning as it got light to see I pulled out of a motel parking lot and met a coyote trotting toward me down the middle of main street.  He was a spindly, leggy young coyote born in April or May and he had a kitten dangling from his mouth.  He was doing a getaway prance with his prize swinging back and forth to his gait.  He crossed 20 feet in front of my bumper.

I roamed state and county roads, vast deserts and mountains, a few small towns like Tonapah, all new to me.  Port Angeles, WA to Payson, AZ and back.  3464 miles.  Loved it.

I saw a red fox once trotting along with a black-and-white cat hanging from its mouth.

I was squirrel hunting years ago and saw something white in a tree a ways off.  :confused: Looking through my binoculars I saw on owl with a chicken he had obviously snatched from a nearby pen.  ;yes;

Everybody loves chicken :biggrin: we have a lot of owls around the house, pretty cool birds and very vocal especially in the spring time. I really get them talking in the spring with my Palmer's hoot flute owl call.

I seen an Eagle snatch a fish from the river one day when I was out in the yak. He took it up in a nearby tree and shredded it. I had a beautiful view but the Gopro wouldnt quite cut it with no zoom .

Me older brudder has a pair of ravens that have nested for years in the cupola on his barn. I have seen them many times they're humongous, bigger than his chickens and speaking of which he said they helped themselves to eggs quite often ha ha. he said they make an amazing variety of noises. He also said they eat more dog food than his border collies do.
