At work this morning a young coyote walked past my window, looking for something to eat. I'm glad that my little friendly ground squirrel, who sometimes peeks in and watches me, was hiding in its hole.
Coyote.
The coyote stopped for a drink of water and then saw something in a nearby bush to chase, but eventually it wandered off. I've seen this coyote before, last week it was limping but its back leg seems to have gotten better.
A while later my little ground squirrel came out of its hole and ate a mesquite bean pod. Its little tail sticks straight up and sometimes it "peeps" really loudly.

Mama Cat, who is sitting happily on my lap as I type this, would probably like to eat that little squirrel.
