This guy almost got away with it. While we were photographing a bison in front of us this guys came slinking behind us trying as hard as possible not to be noticed but alas we got a glimpse of him in the corner of our eye. He sure was trying hard and the look in his eyes whispered to us…You don’t see me. Yellowstone National Park.

Hi and yes we got close to this guy but he got closer to us. It was a surprise to turn and around sand see him sneaking right behind us. Made for a wonderful experience. Hope your day is going well and your week off to a great start.

Hi and thanks for the kind feedback. We have yet to see wolves but like you always see Coyotes. Hope you get back to Yellowstone someday and do get to spot a wolf.
Cheers.

Coywolf?

Just a Coyote but in Yellowstone they seem to be a bit larger and the ones here in CO.

OMG! I never thought of them as slinkers! They’re rather “in your face” here in CA.
Great posture and image Mike! You’ve given me a new way to think about them! It is a Coyote isn’t it?
If it’s a Wolf I get the slinking around!

Hi. Yes it is a Coyote and I have seen both slickers and those that are much more bold as well as those who are indifferent and just go about their business. This guy clearly would have been happy getting by without being seen.

🙂 I’m sure I’ll never see another Coyote and not think of your descriptive word “slinkers”. I wonder if I’ll ever see one. They seem so bold here.

Oh Mike, this is wonderful. Your description and use of the word slink perfectly matches your image

Thanks LB. The word slink just seemed to fit. You could sure tell this guy did not want to be seen and would have been happy if he had just slinked on by. Hope your week is off to a great start.
