Our home sits in the middle of a small village in a working class neighborhood of ranch, Cape Cod and colonial style houses. The lot sizes average .25 acres. We don’t have large plots of trees or parks within two miles of us.
A week ago I was looking out the front window of our home, checking the weather before leaving to meet friends in the village for our usual Saturday morning run and soul cleansing. Running down the street was a coyote! He/she stayed on the side of the road facing traffic like any good runner should do. The coyote continued up our street a few hundred yards before getting out of sight. Jan was out running one early morning two weeks ago in the village and said she had seen a coyote. I’m guessing the coyote has a regular routine or maybe he just likes to run like we do?Three days ago as I was pulling out of the driveway to go to work I looked down the road and saw our friend, the coyote, again. This time he was darting between houses with what looked like a small squirrel in his mouth.
If the Roadrunner suddenly appears I’ll really start to get worried. Until then at least our squirrel population might get under control. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wile_E._Coyote_and_The_Road_Runner
