Coyote Spotted on Rockland Dr.
07/15/09 at 5:21pm

Hey ya'll,
Two weeks ago last Friday MORNING(!) I saw a coyote
drinking out of our birdbath!
He stayed for about 5 minutes taking his own sweet time.
He then sat around the yard for a few minutes and so I
had plenty of time to tell it was a coyote , not some real
thin, short haired dog.
We have spotted him ( or another one previously) during the
MORNING!
This happened on the July 4th weekend.
We called Animal Control and got a pre-recorded message.
We didn't know what else to do so we are posting it here.
Sorry it took me a week to get this up.
Thanks!

I couldn't believe my eyes. We too got a good look at it. This one was a little thin with matted hair. Maybe there are two.

I have had two relocated - and just as soon a one is gone, another one shows up. I swear, it is like the go around the corner and let them loose. I haul in the bird feeders at night - but the little bandits are coming out during the day - which I though was unusual.

Once we almost let it thinking it was our cat! We have our bird feeder outside of one of our 2 story windows and climb the ladder to put bird food in it or else they and the squirrels would hog it all.

#3 Rocy Raccoon is waiting in my carport for Creature Catchers - or something like that - to come pick up and relocate.

I have a run off creek that runs next to property line and it always has water and I know that is an attractive nuisance.

Between raccoons and grackles and huge black birds, it is hard for the little birds to get a square meal.

I am amazed how strong they are - this little one has twisted the carry handle on the Havaheart Trap completly off. Hate for one to get hold of my finger!
