My buddy the coyote

I pulled in late last night from animae night with friends. As I was unloading my van, I turned around, and there, in the light from my vehicle, close enough to kick, was my buddy the coyote.

He was sitting down, head cocked, with a big canine grin, tail wagging. A thrill went through me, with my arms all loaded up with bags and purse and stuff. He got up, tail wagging, and trotted off into the darkness.

Wow.

Do you know about [livejournal.com profile] dailycoyote? (RSS feed from http://dailycoyote.blogspot.com/ )

If not, and you're not afraid of dying from cute, you need to...

That's definitely a "Wow!" Glad all y'all survived the flooding (and other acrobatics).

Wow. He must know you consider him a friend, not a varmint.

I had a surprise visitor (http://maiac.livejournal.com/127117.html) this morning.

Who was your surprise visitor?

Oops, I assumed you'd click the link. I saw a Cooper's hawk in my back yard.

It didn't show up as an obvious link until I moused over it. What a kewl picture!

One of the bunnies in my yard once got carried away by a hawk as I was doing dishes looking out of the window. It was freaky.

Wow. That is SO cool.

Heee! How lovely! Perhaps he's been watching over you.

I must say, I'd have been scared to death. Thrilled, but scared to death.

Since it was so late, I thought it was the neighbor's dog for a moment, before remembering the dog had passed away months ago. Then, I was frozen! Not yet scared, and then it left, and I was thrilled.

I second the recommendation for the Daily Coyote. Definitely take a look since you're coyote-friendly. :-)

Can always use another animal protector spirit.

That sounds like a coyote asking to be domesticated.

Not with a gun-toting neighbor threatening to shoot it, nor my complete lack of knowledge about canines!
