Coyotes!


I knew there were coyotes in the suburbs, but somehow I didn't think that meant my neighborhood. Last night I was up around 4am and saw my neighbor's motion-sensor light had gone on, so I peeked out and saw an opossum. No biggie. But then-walking down the middle of the street was a coyote! And then a few minutes later another one came by. I was very freaked out. It looked like a cross between a dog and a fox. I think that's probably what tore the head off that poor robin a few weeks ago. Makes me wonder where they hide during the day. Should I warn my neighbors to keep their cats and children near home?
