Young King of the Desert Wanderers


Ok, here I am



You want a portrait shot? You will have to crop to get one!



OK, I am getting irritated so I will lick my lips.



And off I go



OK, I will stop one more time for you, but I won't look at you!

Great shots. My cheap camera wouldn't be able to get those. Gotta get a new one. The coyote is one of my personal heros. When times are tough they can live on grass. Their species strength, in my view, is not so much that they can, but that they do. After baby skunks and lizards and tasty ground squirrels, grass would be hard to swallow -- wouldn't want my pals (peers, co-coyotes, coyotees, etc.) watching me do it either.

Thanks!

I love coyotes for their survival skills---desert, mountains, cities----they are so adaptable.

I also think they have special spirits

We have a pack of about a dozen of them in our back yard. Their focus is amazing. They are like a very tightly wound watch, incredibly skittish here. Diane got a photo of four pups chasing each other's tails. They are fun to watch. I can see why the Native Americans called him the Trickster and a Shape Shifter. Their stare is the epitome of focus.

Thanks,

Iflyfish

Thanks for the nice comments---and yes, they really are baja nomads. I am glad others enjoyed these pix and also really like coyotes.

For anyone interested a little in Coyote as trickster, and or the search for spirituality, I highly recommend the three books written by Webster Kitchell, --the first one being God's Dog: Conversations with Coyote

I forget the name of the two that followed---but they are really fun books with some really good messages and questions. The author was the minister at the Unitarian Church in Santa Fe when he wrote these--a really nice person and a great speaker.
