Where we used to live we would have coyotes in our neighborhood (mind you just your average neighborhood in the middle of the city, no acreage, etc). It took me awhile to realize what the noise ws when I heard them at 4 a.m. too (must be a popular time for them to howl?) We had to be careful with Koda because even though our fence was about 6 feet high, they could still jump it if they wanted to. We never sent him out without us going with him and a big stick. We would have a coyote watch at the corner of the fence, waiting for him I think. I do miss the roadrunners and quail we had there. Now we get opossums and raccoons.<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8104951117718966173.post-79056728589006709502014-02-19T21:07:15.525-05:002014-02-19T21:07:15.525-05:00We get black bears here on occasion, but not in my...We get black bears here on occasion, but not in my neighborhood.

Looks like your squirrels are well fed. We have lots of both, squirrels and coyotes, and other creatures that wake us up with peculiar noises in the night. Even though it disturbs my sleep, I so love being in a place where it happens all the time. mischiefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12837189368963587932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8104951117718966173.post-56978225862142690932014-02-19T10:01:04.144-05:002014-02-19T10:01:04.144-05:00Wow, what an incredible racket!
