A Loggerhead Shrike And A Coyote In The Snow

Coyote – The Shot That Might Have Been (and almost was…)
Running Coyote Pup – More Legs Than It Knows What To Do With
Canid pups are just plain cute but throw in a bushel of awkward long legs and I think the cuteness is amplified.
Coyote Buddies – Both Of Them Survivors
I love it when critters overcome a stacked deck and beat the odds against their survival.
Progress Report On The Severely Injured But Now Healing Coyote
Nineteen days has shown what I believe is a remarkable improvement in the snout injury of this coyote.
Another (very different) Look At The Injured Coyote
Two days ago I reported on a seriously injured coyote on Antelope Island and said I’d keep you updated if I encountered the animal again. Yesterday morning I did just that.
Coyote Aggression And Serious Coyote Injury
Yesterday morning there was ample evidence of serious social tension among the Antelope Island coyotes.
Two Coyotes Hunting And The Demise Of A Vole
Two days ago I photographed a pair of coyotes up close as they hunted voles along the Antelope Island causeway.
The Mind’s Eye Can Be Deceived By The Effects Of Telephoto Lenses
What you see isn’t always what you get in nature photography. The following three images, taken sequentially in a burst, illustrate my point.
A Couple Of Coyotes And The Utah Mule Deer Protection Act

A Coyote, A Reflection And An Interpretive Error On My Part
Three months ago I posted some shots of a coyote intrigued by its own reflection in the Great Salt Lake. I rejected one photo I liked because of what I thought was a metal wire that ruined the image. I should have paid more attention…
A Curious Coyote, A Reflection And A Compositional Quandary
Two days ago we found this coyote exploring along the Antelope Island causeway. We watched it gnaw on a duck or shorebird carcass (possibly falcon leftovers, based on past experience) and then it continued to look for something, almost anything, to eat. When it reached the end of a rocky spit jutting out into the Great Salt Lake it entertained us with some interesting behavior.
