Yesterday I was walking with two dogs, enjoying all the flowering fruit trees. I saw a healthy coyote watching something in the tall grass. As I tried to get my camera the coyote noticed me, shared a glance with me and then ran off.
I turned to see what s/he had been watching and a big skunk had its tail high in the air, ready to spray. We ran off.
Chena spotted a white tail and ran it off... she won't chase them, just 'protects' me from them and scares them off.
The other dog in the photos is a rescue from years back... his name is Timber... he's part Australian heeler and boxer. He's a day sitter for pups ... gentle but tough he teaches them to behave in the kennel. Fun to watch. I walk him on a lead as he loves to hunt...
I feel safe on the trail with him as he notices wildlife well in advance. He and our now deceased, Anatolian patrolled together in their younger lives.
