Well we got back into town at about 1000 from being gone for Christmas. It was a beautiful day. I knew it probably wasnt the best time of day but I had to go. I made five dry stand and didnt even see a coyote. I was headn back in and I spotted a coyote crossing a field. I took a shot and swore he was hit in a back leg. Instead of taking another shot I messed up. Well not really I let the dogs out and they were on the chase. Of course they went right into the sun and I lost sight of the coyote and the two dogs. I was trying to cut them off and I dont know if they quit the track or the coyote made a circle. I finally spotted them and they were about 1.5 miles the opposite direction that I last saw them.Zipper is not quite fast enough to catch a healthy coyote. But he isnt very far behing them if one slips up he will be on it.

So we get headed back and I look up on a ridge and see a coyote peeking over the top. We hustled up the hill and tried to call it in. We never saw it again. I didnt figure we would but I tried. Zipper and Kiya on its track.This is full zoom on my camera I need one with a bigger zoom.Even though it didnt end with a kill it was good to get out and let the dogs work.
