Second Stand had one come in behind us and too our right. Adrian spots it leaving at about 300 yards. It wont stop and no shot taken. I am sitting there waiting for that one to take another look at us when I look down and see a Coyote running off with Adrian's decoy in its mouth. It did not just grab it. It had it in its mouth and was leaving with it when I saw it. It was pretty brushy where we were and I could not get a shot sitting down. I stood up as I was telling Adrian, right there, It has your decoy. He says where. I say right F*$&ing there. Boom, Adrian shoots the shotgun! He says, did I hit it? I said, I think so. He said where did it go? I said, I don't know. He takes off running down there while I cover the further open ground with a rifle. We were starting to think it got away. Adrian missed it on the way by, but spots it on his way back to where he shot it. It was stone dead right where he shot at it. The Decoy was right there too. I am asking, Is there any holes in the Decoy?? Nope! Good. Any ways we laughed about it. Congratulated each other and said nobody's going to believe this story. I said I would not believe it if I had not been there. Here is a picture of the Coyote.
It was a real small female. Must have been pretty hungry! She almost made it off with the energizer bunny. We made a third stand and blanked on it.
