The Quarry, just like it sounds is the land that a quarry once occupied. It is now abandoned and over grown with grass and empty fields. Many people use it as a place to walk their dogs. It is just north of where I live and about 5kms due north of where we last saw the coyote in the beach. It's pretty conceivable that this is the same one we saw last time, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was another one.
Today I spotted him on the path ahead of us, as we were on our walk through the tall grass. He spotted us and he kept one step ahead of us as we walked in the same direction. My dogs couldn't care less, but he kept a weary eye on us and he wouldn't let me get close enough for a shot with my crappy iPhone.
The coyote is just up ahead of the dogs on the path.
He would make sure he was far enough away from us and would stop and turn to watch us a we approached, and then move to another spot further up to watch us some more. He didn't appear to be worried about the dogs. Eventually he got bored with us and disappeared into the nearby marsh.Again, the coyote is at the top of the shot watching us --really! Crappy iPhone camera!!
The things you see in the middle of the day in the heart of the city when you are out walking the mutts...
