My wife and I watched "our" coyote eat some of the left overs of 22-eating fruit theives yesterday. Both the coyote and a raven are regulars at the "breakfast table". The coyote here looks about in the same shape as the first pic.....would think there would be plenty to eat, but he/she sure looks scrawny. One of the coyote hating neighbors will eventually shoot it, I'm sure. My chickens are safe as the dogs can almost get to the pen and keep Mr. Yote at bay. The neighbor has at least six cats (seven, maybe) and the coyote has never taken one even though half of them are outside cats.

Cats and gardens.....lovely....Todd, did you know that sausage is a plant tuber?
