Wet snow fell from the gray to cover the world in cold. A coyote sends a small shiver down her spine, fending off the frigid air for a few moments. She glides over rotten snow, head down sniffing the ground for the scent of hare or any prey that might have ventured out on such a dismal day.

Nice photos! What do you think about this? http://stayrefreshed.wordpress.com/2011/12/30/what-to-do-if-2012-really-is-our-last-year-on-earth/
Hey Sam, thanks for stopping by. That’s a great list.
Where was the photo taken? I love the snow so much
In my old backyard in Truckee, California (near Lake Tahoe). I think I took this photo in the winter of 2010. Not sure what month…I’d have to look it up. Coyotes come down into the neighborhoods during the spring. We had huge boulders behind our house that housed a huge rabbit warren. The coyotes would come visit for a snack. 😉
great photo, That coyote looks a lot like a wolf…
Really? It’s hard to tell with no real reference for scale, but it’s only about the size of my dog – maybe 50 pounds. Probably less. I think wolves are a lot bigger. But, there are a few wolf-dog mixes in the neighborhood…who knows what’s running around out there in the woods!
