Well went yesterday with a guy i know, he had a spot right up the road from my house.
Made our 1st stand right at 1st light. After calling for about 5 minutes the Coyotes started howling from behind us......at least 4, sounded like 2 young 1s and 2 adults.
a few minutes later had this young female running and bounding right past me, i barked at her she stopped and the Tikka sounded off.

Then today at 3am i got my son up and we headed for a place called Old Station East or Redding Ca. on Hwy 44.
1st stand we called a Grey Fox, i saw it coming from about 100 y out. It must have got nervous cause it circled the Mojo decoy and then it reappeared 50 yards behind it on a stump and stood there and barked for a few. We got up and it made tracks, if it were October we would have had a nice Fox.
On the way home as we were driving west on Hwy 44 i happened to look out the passenger window and spotted a Sow Brown Bear and her Cub. I turned around and dug out my camera did the only shooting i could for the day.

All in all my son saw his first Grey Fox in the wild and his First Sow Bear and her Cub so it turned out to be a good day all the way around.

I hope the young ones survive without mom around. The bear is a brown colored black bear, we don't have brown bears here. I'm out past the other end of hiway 44.

Ya, i don't know that much about bears, my fault. This is only the 3rd time i saw bears while out in the woods.I just assumed it was a brown bear..... is that considered profiling?
 
Yep rabiddog you'll surely be frowned on by PETA for profiling bears by the color of their skin.

BTW I saw my first Black bear in the wild a couple weeks back and I'm 23. Well, and it wasn't really the "wild" as it was in a neighborhood of a mountain village digging through dumpster trash, but it was a wild bear.
