Fish Springs has been good to me recently.
While driving along one of the dikes we were noticing a horrendous smell.
It was if something had died. We watched in the near distance as ravens sitting on the bridge would
fly off and dive into the little canal beneath the bridge.
We decided to stop, see if something was dead down there. As my wife started to exit the truck
out from the water jumps this coyote not 10 feet from her. As she jumps back into the truck and shuts the door
she screams "It's not dead, it's alive!  It's Alive!" and quickly hands my camera to me.
I get out and squeezed off some 15-20 frames.  Here's a few for your enjoyment.











Here he is shaking off the water. Looks kinda weird.




Turns out, the coyote had been feasting on these water beattles while in the water.
May I please have another.




Like I said, Fish Springs has been good to me lately.
Sometimes you get the shot of a lifetime.
