Now, we live in a rural area so we have plenty of wild animals around, I just don't like it when they are in the yard in broad daylight. Nature Girl is always wanting to play outside, ride her bike or drive gator around. Seeing a coyote in the yard makes me want to keep her inside! Of course I know that's irrational, so instead I now have to show her a picture of a coyote and say if you see this immediately come inside. It freaks me out! I think I'll be spending lots of time outside this summer on coyote patrol.

Freaked Out
I'm home alone today cleaning and organizing while Nature Girl is at her last day of art camp. Around 12:30 I heard the dog across the street barking and looked out the front door to see a coyote standing in my front yard. I did a double take. . .yep it really was a coyote. Cinnamon, who is a tiny little dog, kept barking. The coyote took a look a Cinnamon then trotted off down my driveway then around the side of the house. I couldn't see where he took off to.

Wow...that is scarey! Hopefully they are afraid of humans and would run the other direction rather than come towards you. We just had signs posted in our track about coyote sightings last week and we live in the city! We've been watching Barkley very closely when we let him out in the backyard at night to pee before bed. Crazy.....
We have seen racoons in our front yard. They are such cute creatures - but from a distance please! I hope your guest doesn't return!
Oohh ... we have a number of them that wonder around our area and the lake edge. It is scary especially with small kids .... time to teach her to play really loudly:-D
I would freak too. You and Nature Girl stay safe and enjoy your summer! You are so lucky to have it off.
