Coyote on our evening walk

Been waiting to see Coyotes in the area, and finally on our evening walk just now ...

About 500 metres away ...

The Coyote was running alongside the trees, and I was running towards it to get a closer picture. And then it saw me and stopped ☺

Here is what it is probably after. We saw three of these ...

After about fifteen minutes of hide and seek, it appeared further down the trail 

(always good to spot wildlife before they spot you!)

And the coyote posed for this picture before disappearing into the evening

 Once upon a time, we saw foxes along with their cubs on the same route. 

Whether it's a Coyote or a coywolf, I'm not sure,
But truly happy to see it around here!
