Hmm? I guess I don't know how to resize photos on a Mac? [ December 01, 2010, 10:24 AM: Message edited by: Leonard ]

Very nice! Leonard, that one on the left is the color I attempted to describe to you a while back, if you recall?
I call those coyotes "creamsicles" and have seen them once or twice, but never got a bullet into one...

Leonard... Thanks for posting the pic. I was a bit delayed because I finally let my daughter go hunting with me after years of saying no way, you talk too much... lol Raven smacked a Doe this afternoon! I'm so proud of her!
Yes, this is my first Pennsylvania double after all these years! They were both females, one was 30lbs and the other was 32lbs. That strawberry blonded one is my second one of that color.
The coyotes had been going nuts vocally. I don't know what was getting into them other than maybe hunger, but they wouldn't shut up! They were doing lone howls repeatedly and threat barks for at least a 1/2 hour. It was the night before deer season and I was really fighting the calling urge because I didn't want to mess up my deer hunting chance the next morning.
But after that long, they got on my last nerve. I started with some really light churping and threw in a couple of barks. They got quiet. So I threw in another churp and waited for about 30 seconds or so and turned my head in a different direction and then howled.
Out popped blondie so I let her have it. I picked up my open reed call then and started yelping. This other one started lone howling again in the woods in response to my yelping. I waited a little bit longer and yelped a couple more times and out came the other one and down she went about 25 yards from where blondie took a nap.
It was a great night. No deer the first day of season, but I figured with the noise the coyotes were chatting the night before that if I were a deer, I would have packed my bags. The second day of rifle I layed down a Doe so it was all good. I just need to get a buck before I leave on saturday.
btw... That beautiful little blonde chick in her pink carhardts is Jessica, my granddaughter, My Little Blackbird. She should have posed with her pink 22 cricket [ December 01, 2010, 03:19 PM: Message edited by: Crow Woman ]

Great photo and story. Pretty soon your Granddaughter is going to want you take her out too. Good work on the venison too, now you just need that buck and you can call it a season....deer season that is.
