Had a coyote after the outdoor cat one fine night.
It knows that my presence means something very bad.
However, it thinks that if I am not within sight that all is safe.

It thought wrong.

Still, my bunnies here have suffered over the years.
Have one that likes to wiggle his ears while hopping in circles around me.
I ask it, “You’re certain you’re a wild eastern cottontail?”
That earns me a foot thump and stern glare.
Hysterical actually.
Not only do they have to worry about the coyote, they have the hawks and owls to be worried about.
And my lovebird seems to have a knack for ticking off the local owl and getting him to sit outside the window.
Waiting for the night I head out and end up wearing an owl on my head because of my evil little bird.

Too many houses nearby to take a shot at a coyote here. I wouldn't kill one anyway unless it attacked me but I would take some shots to put some fear in them if that wouldn't likely result in a couple of Sheriff's cars coming to find out what's going on.

My rabbits are cottontails too. When I startle my most recent bunny friend (by not noticing that it's there and walking up to it too fast) it gives me a look like "what's your problem?" What can I say? They blend in very well.
