On the way back from fishing and only about a mile from where we saw the osprey, we spotted this little guy, on the other side of the fence that was just off the road. When I say little, I mean it. This coyote is a youngster and was probably born this year. It is quite small yet and is about the size of a fox. My guess is that it was about half of the normal adult size.
The young coyote was obviously looking for mice and it wasn’t being too successful because the coyote was underweight.

They are always looking for food. Great find again.
Understandable, considering how small and scrawny it was.
