Yellowstone Coyote
Returned home this week from my 5th trip to Yellowstone National Park in winter. More on the overall trip later.
Here is a coyote from Hayden Valley on day 1 that we spotted walking near a partially frozen river. We were up higher along the road, shooting down at him. Took several still photos and then went into slow-motion video mode as he got closer. He was walking on a trail that was leading right near us, so we had to get back into the vehicle when he started up the hill.
Love the winter coats on the Yellowstone coyotes. They are very beautiful animals, compared to the ones that I’ve seen in Texas.
