Flickr Friday: Coyotes

Coyotes, Canis latrans, a photo by Gotfish - Marc Briggs- on Flickr.

In keeping with today's "green hillsides" theme, here is a great shot of coyote pups on a green hillside by Friday's featured photographer Marc Briggs, currently of Santa Barbara. [See Marc's Flickr photos here.] He says: "I love hiking and exploring...and shooting wild and open land around Santa Barbara and central California." As luck would have it, photographs of wild and open land around Santa Barbara and central California are photos I tend to love.

Can you spot the third young coyote in this picture?
