It's a little fuzzy, but i assume it was a quick shot taken in the wild when the coyote happened to cross your path. Cool. There are some coyotes around here (yes, downtown Toronto!) but I've never seen one. Someone I know has seen one near here, and apparently the coyotes ate all the bunnies that used to be over on the Toronto islands.
You are right. The coyote was totally unaware of my presence until the last second. It is fuzzy because it is only 62Kb in size. Thanks for the welcome/
