All of a sudden there was a hair curling goose bumping racket, sounded like at the base of my window but I knew it was just inside the pines by the house maybe 50 feet away. A pack of coyote's raising a ruckus. I jump out of bed and hit the switches to the flood lights and grab the swift and step out the back door in hopes of seeing any number of them heading off to the back of the place. Nothing showed so they were probably going to the west along the creek and ran into one of Kare's garage cats.
I go back inside to find Kare standing in the living room looking out the window and she says where were they at. I tell her I thought they were right next to my bed way it sounded, I have heard them often but never this close before, out behind the pole barn and maybe the field next door but they woke me up good this time. I look at the clock and it is 2:38 AM.
Once I know Eric is up and about around 7:30, I am going to call him and see if we can set up something for this evening maybe starting a bit in the afternoon and we can do several sets in the area.
Also decided I was kind of dumb standing outside with a rifle in hopes of seeing a coyote heading to the back, all I could have did with the rifle unless they were walking slow is hurry them along. I will now have Charles in the room with me while sleeping. I bet when the flood lights came on they quit partying and left the area. I never did get back to sleep, found a decent movie on the tube.
