Spot The Dog

[Brian Moore]

Can you see the coyote?

Actually that's Sadie. But people have asked me if Sadie is a coyote.

But one night a couple of months ago an actual coyote loped past us right about where Sadie is standing in this fotie. I think it was a new moon that night because it was very dark; but I saw the coyote, and Sadie didn't because at the time she was off to the right of where she is here, sniffing a scent piddling her marker or something. Timing is everything.

The coyote minded its own business and went silently on its way.

There is a house there, and the side of the house borders a small alleyway that leads to another street. On the side of that house the owner has fitted a bright security light. I believe you're seeing the light from that light, which had been pointed directly toward the location where I was. (It's not usually like this.)

Thanks, Hamish.

Fantastic shot Brian. As Hamish says, full of mystery.
