After the flight deck we drove around the farm loop. This is only the second coyote we saw, and this was shot from the car, across the ditch from as close as possible through the clearest bushes I could find. A patch of sun illuminated the coyote and then it trotted away. Never got a closer shot of it, so this is the environmental shot.

I like the spotlighting of the coyote. Good catch.

I have to say I like this. It works well. I have to admit I did get a bit closer while I was there this year, twice. Both on the same day in different areas. I'll be posting those images in the next few weeks. (I still have a bit to go before the day is up to the time I got the Coyote. :) )

Nice one Steve. The fg is a little distracting on the left but it beats the heck out of my blank!
