Maybe the state should be counting coyotes, too

Why they look ragged
They are shedding their winter coats, but nobody helps them out with a brush so they get lots of messy hair caught until they can roll it off, rub it off, etc.
Esplanade geese + coyotes
The esplanade paths are lousy with geese and goose-crap. A few of these coyotes might help patrol the place...
Great photo!
For a moment, I thought this was a coyote statue.
Pups somewhere?
Hard to tell for sure, but could this be a nursing mom?
Could be
Looks like dog boobs, not exactly Wolf Tits tho. (look it up if you want to see some "creative" local graffiti)
Let Nature Sort Itself Out
Someone needs to introduce the coyotes to the turkeys... then there will be likely less to count on both sides.
Ran into one at the Fells last night
Just standing there wondering if a 125lb former bait dog and Mastiff/pit mix was worth it. She thought better of it and scampered off.
Last Week, 3am ...
I woke to a full moon Howl-a-lujah chorus! It was quite impressive to hear with the windows open and all. I could even hear it over the intense purring coming from my cat, who was wedged between me and the mister.
One time a guy was coming down the street to go into the woods and his dog was going nuts. When he bent down to unleash the beast I told him that probably wasn't a good idea. He started to indignantly whine about his dog's rights like the most entitled off leash types tend to do ... until I pointed out the coyote lurking in the woods ... waiting.
His dog had a potential "playmate" close by that he had not bothered to notice.
Funny how leash enforcement in the Fells, spotty as it is, has resulted in far fewer of those "Lost Dog" signs in the area.
They didn't have this problem when Setti Warren was mayor
Just sayin'

Hey you coyotes
Boston gave a deal to Amazon, not to Acme.
I bet you didn't know
Oracle bought Acme in 2013. You're going to say that's not the same Acme, but if you visit the building (at 100 Crosby Drive in Bedford), you'll find all the conference rooms and facilities are still named Yosemite Sam, Road Runner, etc.
I work on Crosby Drive
...and I might have to investigate this.
I haven't seen any coyotes in these parts yet, but there are plenty of turkeys and a huge eagle in the area. I'm sure the coyotes are around, too.
Robot dogs
Aren't the robot dogs starting to invade, too?
At the other end of the street
That's where iRobot is.
I'm closer to iRobot than to Oracle
And I do occasionally see people testing robots outside. However, I think you're confusing iRobot with Boston Dynamics in Waltham. I wish we had the robot dogs up here.
If they made a sitcom about me,
...would it be called "The Life of Wily"?
It may be pronounced Wily
But the correct spelling is Wile E. .
Shh!
You don't want to get Adam sued!
So THAT'S who they got to deliver Globe Direct!
(Look on the step below our friend.)
I get it!
A reverse fetch!
