Coyotes
on the move means that all manner of vulnerable creatures are in danger. When
we moved to our old house, the neighbors warned us not to let our cats outside
for fear of coyotes, fox and even fishers. Since, we’ve seen them all and have
been aware of certain neighbor pets that have gone missing.
Autumn
seems to have a way of reminding us of our proximity to the wild and its
austerity. At the same time that the environment is becoming harsher, certain
animals are more frequent in preparation. Thus we see the bears at the feeder,
raiding the supply to put on stores. The coyote and fox are on the move, the
former rarely seen though often heard. Fox we do witness, furtively crossing
the road in the morning light or brief twilight of evening. It hunts the fields
I suspect and travels to and from its woodsy den.
