The Red Maple and the Elusive Coyote

in VanDusen Gardens
I had gotten glimpses of him before, but always he was gone too fast, but there he was suddenly trotting along still far away, and I was quick to get a shot of him. Of course I had no time to re-set my camera and he is blurred behind the little maple tree. So I have had him in my archives for a couple of years and somehow now think it is ok to show him :-)))

  danke, Markus ... ich glaube, man muss schon naeher dran sein, um Kojote und Wolf zu unterscheiden .... in den Parks wird bei uns mit Schildern vor Kojoten gewarnt.

Herbst und Wind haben hier kein leichtes Spiel
Da müssen sie noch paar mal vorbei schauen, bis das letzte Blatt gefallen ist.
Schön diese roten Farben.

Auch wenn man ihn erst auf den zweiten Blick erkennt - eine feine und gelungene Aufnahme! VG!

An unusual shot.
It's amazing that they are also finding their way into the civilized world and its cities. As long as they don't endanger people, I don't think that's a bad thing.
Here too, more and more wild animals, that usually live in the forests, are finding their way into villages and towns. As more and more garbage (including food) accumulates, it is easier for many animals to find food than in their natural habitat.
Best regards and have a fine weekend
Matthias

  thank you, Matthias, coyotes have been a part of Vancouver for many years hanging out in the larger parks where they find rodents to eat - skunks and raccoons pose more of a problem :-))
