coyote

I swear I don't travel specifically to encounter coyotes, but for whatever reason I tend to come across them quite often. Here's one I had the privilege of photographing while in Tahoe for New Year's Eve. 

​"The coyote works with only himself and his family. In the heat of the prairies, the coyote survives through its own talent. When it appears, it reminds us to look within ourselves and use our human resourcefulness to soar above our problems."
