Ups and Downs |
Hunting has its ups and downs. This coyote
slowly and carefully approached its target,
gingerly extending an arm in the gopher's
direction. Ahhhh, the timing looked right.
So up she jumped in a beautifully executed
n-curved dive, which landed exactly on target:
nose into the ground and feet flying high! But
I can't tell if the coyote hurt its nose or if the
gopher bit her -- notice her expression after
the dive in the center photo. She then attempted
to reach for the gopher, but then suddenly
trotted off a short distance where she stood
just looking at the gopher hole. She did not
leave with a gopher, and she did not approach
this gopher hole again. Hmmm.
