Beaver Bend Coyote










































After Breakfast, and Shuttle to and from the Village, and a nap, I gathered all the gear and paddled out to Two Top Pine Meadow...a bit past the Broken Cottonwood, sighted Coyote track, and then Coyote...for a long while, followed Coyote about the Meadow....faraway pics and clips, some digi...heard Pileated Woodpecker in the Cottonwoods....Mists rising, and fading Light, returned along the Merced to Ozone Beach, where I sighted Male Merganser...faraway pics and clips...tourists walking along the Beach startled Merganser, and Merganser flew furiously right towards, and by me...see clip!...hazy sky, cool, cool enough to keep the snow crunchy, and roads hazardous....oh!...forgot to put up clip where Coyote listens to Rock Fall...for sometime!...lots of Deer tracks in the Backyard, Coyote and Bear too...oh...almost forgot the haiku for yesterday's post...checked for Mallards from the Shuttle...Mallards are off to somewhere...

There's Ice on the Ponds,
There's Snow on all the Hummocks,
Mallards have flown off!
