These photos were taken from quite a distance, 150+ yards with a 600mm f4 & 1.4 extender on a Canon R7 crop sensor. Also heavy crop and Topaz Gigapixel. So not intended for pixel peeping!
We spent a couple hours watching the coyotes come and go as well as the birds. I found it interesting that 2 Bald Eagles would chase away the coyotes. I have more of this evening and I will share more. There were 4 coyotes, but 3 did not like the 4th for some reason. You will see later why I say 3 mostly amigos.
The 3 mostly amigos, they seemed to get along and were happy to head back to the dinner table together.

The young eagle was not excited about the crows being there and would flap his wings about I guess to try and scare the crows away. It didn't work.

Ah, I did my job, thanks!!!
Crows are unflappable! Nice series.
Great story telling photos!
A true “pecking order” of nature.
Nothing left behind, but tracks in the snow.
Even the melting blood benefits the soil for next springs’ growth of plants.
