We were in the backyard, enjoying the sunshine on our faces, the birds chirping in the pine tree, just hangin' out on our bench, when we heard a coyote (0:15 sec). Behind me is wetland for many acres.
We have a wolf, bears, and other canines, a fox, coyotes, a mink. We share this forest and wetland with many critters. I'm vigilant about keeping the younger, female cats in at night, but Buster goes outside in the dark and plays.

Daisy and I were sitting on the bench, under the White pine tree, in the sun. She was bird watching. Suddenly, we heard a canine bark. It had to be coyotes in the wetland. Bambi, at the back of the yard, stared in the direction of the sound for about a minute. I picked up Daisy, and took her into the house!
In the meantime, Buster cat thought he could hunt a red squirrel. The squirrel teased him.

I don't know how a black cat thinks he can sneak up on white snow, to go after a red squirrel. He tried, with his sisters cheering him on from the dry deck. The red squirrel was a big tease.

Having coyotes outside would spook me out with kitties running around.
